  3. I’ve heard of them, just haven’t seen them in my neck of the woods. I have a beautiful old apple tree outside my door that gets many different song birds in all year round. Would be an awesome place to hang these in!

  4. Never heard of bird donuts, but how fun! I would hang them from the hook that holds my bird feeder.

  6. I am building up a bird sanctuary in my newly cleared field. I think the birds would LOVE these donuts.
    I have only seen them in catalogs. I would hang them in my mulberry tree!

  8. I’ve never seen the donuts, but would love to hand them near my back deck. There would be countless hours of enjoyment in watching the birds, or squirrels, perch on them and then eat them. How cute of an idea.

  11. Birdseed donuts are news to me! My parents are bird-lovin’ folks, so I’d send them on to them to brighten up the dreary midwest weather.

  12. I have never heard of them, but they are so darn cute!!

    We have a big huge tree in our front yard, I’d hang several from that, and give a couple to my grandparents who are avid bird feeders/watchers.

  13. I just Tweeted out about it. I don’t have a ton of followers, but I know nearly everyone. So I know interest will be high.

  14. Yes, have heard of Bird Donuts, as have purchased things before from Gardner’s Supply and am on both their mailing and email lists. Do like this company, am happy with everything I’ve purchased from them.

    Since have neighbors who feed the squirrels [we have white ones here!], resulting in more than “nature” would support, would need to protect these donuts from the squirrels. Think I’d hang them from bird feeder hanging hooks affixed to the house.

    Since don’t have Facebook account, and won’t, email is how I follow you Mavis.

  15. I haven’t heard of them. But I love the idea!!! I have the perfect spot a tree that we often bird watch. Oh I hope I win this one! Great idea!!!

  16. I’ve never heard of Bird Donuts. So cute! If I won I’d give them to my friend Brenda who loves feeding the birds on her property in Virginia. (I live in an apartment so no space to feed the birds unfortunately.) Thanks!

  17. I have never heard of them. But they are great and my bird friends would love them. I would hang them out my back door where the birds get their seed from me every morning.

  18. How cute! I never heard of bird donuts before. I would give them as a Christmas gift to my mom and step-dad. They are bird lovers and love to feed the birds. I can imagine them laughing when they open the package–if I win this, that is. 🙂

  21. I have never heard of them but they are so cute and I would put them in the tree in my front yard

  23. I have never heard of donuts for birds but man are they adoreable! I would hang them on my crab apple tree in my front yard , just hope the neighbors don’t try to take bite cause they are so cute!

  24. Never heard of them. However, my father in law has 8 bird feeders and i think he would get a kick out of these.

  27. I’ve never heard of them before- when I was growing up in Ohio we would roll pinecones in peanut butter then birdseed and hang these in the winter. In LA there aren’t too many pinecones dropping in the backyard! I would hang these by my kids’ treehouse so they could watch the birds nibble. Hopefully these will defeat our local greedy squirrel Ninja who has defeated all previous attempts to exclude him from the birdseed feast!

  28. I have never heard of these before, but what a great idea! My sons always help me make pine cone feeders for our cold little friends but these might be a change of pace. I could hang them on my fre out front then do my best Homer Simpson impersonation! D’oh!

  29. These are foot stopmin’ cute! I LOVE the idea and have never heard of these before. How could this be?!
    I subscribe to your newsletter and have posted on my FB page.
    I’d hang these by my bedroom window so i could lounge in my PJ’s and enjoy the birdies holiday feast!

  31. No, I’ve never heard of them before but my little girls would be impressed that birds could eat donuts! We follow you on twitter, facebook, and instagram too.

  32. I have not seen them before, but I feed lots of birds at multiple feeders in my backyard. I follow you on Pinterest.

  35. Never heard of them…my mom is having back surgery on the 22nd. She’s an avid birder and these would be great right outside her window!

  36. I’ve never herd of them before, but the look cute. My parents have a huge window in their kitchen and are avid bird and squirl watchers and are always looking for cool treats for their backyard “pets” and like to try different things to see what different species they attract!

  42. I have never heard of them, but would hang them from the oak tree right in front of our house, so that while I am working or washing dishes, I could watch the birds have a feast!

  43. Those are too cute!
    I had not heard of them before today. I would hang them on the Aspen tree outside our front window and also the Cottonwoods in the back yard, the birds love those 2 places. Thank you!

  46. No, I have never heard of a songbird donut! It would fit in just perfect with my husband’s bird feeding collection. He is the bird feeder in this house! We have 22 different types of feeders. We love to watch them! I even had a perfect stranger bring us this cool 3 story bird feeder. He was cleaning out his garage and remembered all of our feeders, so one day he drove over to present us with this cherished gift. It now hangs proudly with our other feeders. I gave him a jar of your strawberry basil jam that I had made.

  47. Our feathered friends would love this. Very unique and clever. In the spring and summer we put out 60 lbs of seed per month. Yikes.

  48. What an interesting idea! I have never heard of these before, I would hand them in our big maple tree out front so my son & I could watch the birds eating them.

  50. I have never seen these! They are so precious! I would love to hang them around my house in the trees to be able to watch the birds from every window.
    I subscribe to your newsletter and love it!!

  51. I have never heard of bird donuts! If I won them, I would keep some for myself and give a couple to my parents. They love to watch birds. We used to do a really good job of feeding the birds here, but we’ve been neglecting them. Pretty sure these donuts would be a hit!

  53. I have never heard of these. I would give them to my bird lover friend who I’m sure would hang them outside her kitchen window!

  57. I have never heard of bird seed donuts before. My neighbor has several bird feeders so I would give the bird donuts to him.

  60. I’ve never seen bird donuts !! We used to make the peanut butter on pine ones and roll in birdseed! Girls scouts!

  63. I subscribe to your daily email, and I forgot to tell you that if I win I will give these to my sisterinlaw! She is a bird watcher! Lots in their backyard!

  65. Very cute! I would give them to my mom. She has a table set up right outside her dining room window just for her winter birds.

  66. I have never heard of these! I would hang them on the opposite side of my house from my orchard to keep the birds away from the trees they love!

  68. I’ve heard of bird balls, I don’t know about bird donuts…maybe. I follow you on facebook and on RSS. I never comment on your facebook posts but this time (because I want to win :)) I commented on your post about Americans going overboard on Christmas. I was really glad when I read you are willing to ship this anywhere in the world. Thank you for this!

  69. P.S. I would hang this outside my window so I could see the birds and I shared this post on a public Romanian bird watchers group on Facebook.

  70. I’ve never heard of bird seed donuts before. I put several feeders out during the winter months and would hang these donuts from lower branches via twine.

  76. I’ve been eyeing these for awhile to give to my Grandpa for Christmas but they are just too spendy this year. Would love to win and give them to him!

  81. I’ve never heard of bird donuts before, but I love the idea. I would hang some up outside our full-length apartment window for our cat to watch, and give some to my mother, who loves her birds.

  82. Those are the cutest ever! I love birds, but rarely feed them because we get mostly sparrows which swoop in and eat up a whole feeder in a day’s time.

    I have never seen or heard of these before but would totally love them!

  83. I have never heard of them, but have to say I think they are AWESOME! All my little birdies would love them:)

  84. I have never heard of these! So cute! I would like to get them for my husbands grandparents. I think they would love these.

  85. Not donuts, but have made my own birdseed “cookies” to hang outside somewhere the squirrels can not get to.

  86. I’ve never heard of birdseed donuts, but what a cool idea. I would keep
    them on the kitchen counter to show all my friends and family until after the first of the year!! Then the birdies get them.

  87. No I’ve never heard of bird donuts but I’ve heard of bird cupcakes – I’ve actually made them before.

  89. Never heard of them before. My husband is a photographer and has a little fenced in “bird park” in our backyard. I would give these to him to add to his park.

  93. Never heard of these but they are adorably ingenious…would hang up in a tree in my bird loving elderly neighbors yard, by her window…she can’t get out anymore and enjoys the birds.
