We have three "suet" (log) feeders but we have a problem finding suet now s=
ince the a guy who makes the bird pies has first dibs on the local butcher'=
s suet. We also have suet cakes which attracts only a few Hairy/Downy Woodp=
eckers now and occasionally a Flicker and Pileated. Good news re your sapsu=
cker.

Cool photo and update on the brown creeper. I guess it is cold enough toda=
y to encourage such behaviour.
I like your suet set-up. I guess you need to employ some woodpeckers first=
.
We heat suet from the butcher, then let it cool in the pot, but not before =
we throw in some sunflower seeds and a grate that was originally made for t=
hose square store-bought suets. Hang the patty out there for everyone. We=
have quite a following. Our yellow-bellied sap sucker was back this morni=
ng to one of the suet feeders. He=92s a predictable suet feeder visitor as=
soon as it turns cold again. Looks like he will survive winter very well.

A week or so ago there was a discussion about Brown Creepers not being inte=
rested in suet. However today a Brown Creeper after numerous ventures climb=
ing the same tree trunk finally found the fat in a log feeder & spent some =
time there. View it here:
