"Ort" means leftover or scrap. Don`t worry, it`s not a normal word anymore. I learned it from working crossword puzzles. I put orts from brushing Max and Belle in a net onion bag and hang it out on a tree and the birds get the dog hair. Don`t do this if you spray your dogs with flea and tick spray. I like the idea of a yarn nest better. Get everybody into the yarn act!
lol Boy, lopi would be great for the birds, water resistance, I could really get into this!

I have no idea what "Ort" means, but this is what an Ort jar is...one puts all of ones little bits of fibers-yarn, needlepoint thread etc (natural fibers) in it during the year, and early in the spring you festoon your trees in little tufts with this...all within your reach.

Birds will come and collect these offerings and you will have the most colorful, cozy and well built nests in your area. Any little bits that aren`t collected by birds are easily picked up.]]> Fri, 09 Apr 2004 18:12:47 GMT
