Gently melt it in a saucepan and add bird seed (two parts seed to one part suet).If you’ve made your Christmas pudding in the traditional way, then use any leftover beef suet to make fat balls. Move it from the front door and hang it from a tree in the back garden where birds will use the contents for nesting materials when the breeding season starts in February. You can even snag combings of pet hair onto the twigs. Wind some straw or dried grasses around it, and push in moss, undyed feathers and pieces of sheep’s wool picked from fences. If it is made with natural foliage, so much the better, but even one made from synthetic materials can be transformed into a DIY nesting kit for birds. There’s no need to ditch your Christmas wreath come Twelfth Night. Soak dried fruit in water first to make it softer. Dried fruits, such as raisins, sultanas and currants, are popular with blackbirds, song thrushes and robins. Pastry, whether it is cooked or uncooked, is a good energy source for birds as long as it is made with animal fats (butter or lard), as vegetable fats don’t provide enough for cold months. Insects and berries can be scarce at this time of year, so extras on the bird table will be welcomed, while nesting materials will come in handy from late January onwards.īirds will happily tuck into broken-up pieces of this festive favourite.
BROKEN HALO L ANN FULL
I just need to make sure he is.Many of us finish the Christmas period with a fridge full of leftovers and an overflowing box of decorations to go back in the loft, but you can transform much of this excess into a festive gift for garden birds.
I looped my arms around her waist and leaned back in the chair. “You’re no good to him if you’re on the verge of collapse yourself.” Her fingers threaded through my hair, stroked over my skin, relaxing me, and I sighed against her neck. I breathed her in, her presence calming my rattled nerves. I reached for her hands and pulled her around the chair and down onto my lap, so I could bury my face into her throat. “I don’t think that’s top of his list of priorities today.” She bent forward and kissed my forehead. Has Karl given any news on what caused it yet?” With the amount of drugs they’re giving him to keep the pain at bay, sleep is the best thing for him right now.” “He’ll be back on his feet soon, and driving you insane with his crazy behavior.” Her thumbs dug into the back of my neck, massaging the knots of tension. “I know you’re right, but seeing him like that … it’s not normal, Riley.” I tipped my head back and let my eyes close. She moved behind me and kneaded my shoulders. It’s just the drugs making him sleep now.” Riley’s fingers trailed over my neck and across my shoulders and then she was beside me, leaning down to kiss my cheek. “Hey, Lucifer.” Fingers touched the back of my neck, and the scent of lemons enveloped me.
The man in the bed didn’t stir, not even a flicker of his eyes to tell me he was aware of my presence. “If you don’t fucking pull through this, I’m going to track you down in whatever fucking hell you’re in and kill you myself.” Once Harper was out of the room, I let the mask drop and sank onto the chair next to Gabe’s bed.
