		 Mek, thanks for the 411.  Come to think of it, it was whiter and more female looking up to a couple of weeks ago. 
 
Johnny, Ocean State is a good place for cheep seed (and those 'squirrel proof' feeders are $10 a pop, good deal), but watch out for thistle.  As a kid my mom had thistle feeders and some of the seed took.  Stepping barefoot on a thistle is not something you'll forget.  I mix black sunflower with millet, Ocean State is/was somewhere around $20 for 50 lbs of black sun. 
 
For your suet, the best holders are those lobster trap bait bags that litter the beach.  I've got a stash, want me to drop some by Dan's?  I'm headed down this week (and only 3 weekends until I open the cottage and get my feeders there going!)
