Helping the birds to make a nest

My daughter was reading my latest copy of Birds and Blooms and saw on page 10 the story about providing the birds materials to make their nest. We went to the local wild bird store and bought a suet holder. She gathered up some cat hair, cotton balls, fabric, yarn and some other items. She put them all in the holder and we hung it from the fence in our backyard. It will be interesting to see if the birds use it.
