A Christmas tree for the birds

My grandson, Tyler, shows off the the tree after it's decorated with bird cookies.

Bird Cookie Recipe used, shared by my daughter:
1 cup softened unsalted butter
3 beaten eggs
3 1/2 cup flour
1 tsp baking soda
pinch of salt
mixed birdseed
stir flour, baking soda and salt
add butter and eggs
Mix ingredients
Roll dough out on a floured surface and cut different shapes with cookie cutters
Make a hole in the top of each cookie with a drinking straw
Press birdseed into each side of the cookie
Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes
Tie a ribbon after they are cool and put them on the tree
