March is National Peanut Month
and
March 1 is Peanut Butter Lovers' Day
According to the National Peanut Board, the average American
consumes more than 6 pounds of peanuts and peanut butter products each year.
However, humans aren't the only creatures that enjoy this
protein-packed legume.
Many bird
species, such as jays, chickadees, titmice, and woodpeckers prefer peanuts. Other species that have a harder time
accessing the meat through the shell enjoy suet with peanut butter or ground
peanuts as an ingredient. Why not
celebrate the month by bringing this nut to your backyard friends?

**TIP** Squirrels, bears, raccoons, and other animals also enjoy peanuts, so please be aware when feeding with peanuts or peanut butter.
