Every time I brush my part husky rescue dog I leave the clumps of fur in an empty suet feeder for all the critters to use and it seems popular.

I do this with my border collie mix! We have a generational nest on the side of my house, and they love his floof for their nest! I love that my good boy can help out the birds lol.

I cut my own hair and I take the clippings out in the back yard and dump them under the shrubs. I hope they get used

You're unfortunately not supposed to use human hair. It's too strong and can get wrapped around bird feet and cut off circulation. :(
