		the way to attract them is to  
take a special piece of wood 
one 
that has weather'd several winter's 
has long since lost it's bark 
and has sorta petrified a bit 
having become grey -darker, heavier 
usually oak or some other hardwood 
 
then you drill a series of holes in it 
as if they drilled them out themselves 
by pecking.... in order to hide a cache 
of acorns ...any kind of nut... 
 
like if you made some oblong wholes by 
leaning on your bit a little each way 
so you could bang in some Almonds 
 that are still in the shell      
without breaking them.... 
 
to them that is irresistible 
later you can push real beef suet into those holes 
in the winter time
