Birdfeeders… reusable but still plastic | ecogreenlove

Two weekends ago we were on our way to meet some friends, and we saw many of the seeds that can be store-bought to hang on the branches of the trees for the birds to eat during winter.

But still, got into my sport pants and went for a walk at 6:40am!
