Frequently Asked Questions

What types of birds are attracted to various feeder types?

Hopper feeders and tube feeders often attract smaller birds while preventing larger species, like grackles, from comfortably perching and monopolizing the feeder. Hopper feeders are often visited by finches, wrens, chickadees, siskins, warblers, redpolls, nuthatches and titmice. Suet cages (and feeders with attached suet cages) attract wrens, chickadees, titmice, nuthatches, jays, warblers, and woodpeckers. Nectar feeders naturally attract hummingbirds.

What types of seed are compatible with various feeder types?

Most of our seed feeders are compatible with any seed mix we manufacture. Our hummingbird feeders are exclusively designed for nectar. Additionally, our tube feeders have adjustable feeding ports to allow very small feed (such as thistle and finch blends), while our feeders with attached suet baskets accommodate suet and seed cakes.

feeders

Where should I put my bird feeder?

You want to place your feeder in a place both that you can easily view, and that visiting birds will feel safe from predators within 10-15 feet of natural cover (and at least 6 feet off the ground). Avoid windy areas, noisier parts of your property, and areas regularly treated with chemicals. To avoid potentially fatal collisions, keep feeders either within 3 feet of, or at least 10 feet away from windows. Placing in an area you can access easily to clean and refill feeders and clean up dropped seed. Lastly, multiple feeders should be placed far enough away from each other to prevent more territorial birds from fighting.

How often should a bird feeder be cleaned?

Clean your seed feeder about once every two weeks, though more often during times of heavy use or wet weather.

bird chart

How do I attract specific birds?

To draw in specific bird species, it is best to look up and provide their preferred food in the preferred type of feeder. One of the best resources for this information by species is the Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s AllAboutBirds.org guide. In the Backyard Tips section of each species overview, you will find exactly what a given bird prefers, seasonal range maps, birdsong recordings, ID tips and more.

I bought this to try and slow down the squirrels from gobbling up the bird food from other feeders. First, as another person mentioned the plexiglass insert is damaged. Very cloudy. For me that really isn't an issue, tho. However, I did want to turn the glass so the bird seed would come out. It wouldn't budge. I had to loosen the screw on the side to be able to remove the glass. Other than that it looks like it will work out fine.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful squirrel feeder
Reviewed in Canada on July 1, 2020
First, it shipped to me very quickly.
It arrived late in the day yesterday but I put it out before dark so the squirrels would find it first thing in the morning. I haven't had a squirrel feeder before now and the birds were getting all the peanuts and any out of the shell nuts I threw out on the ground so I bought walnuts and hazelnuts in the shell especially for the squirrels but they're an expensive way to feed the squirrels. However, it is a very good way to introduce them to a feeder. I filled the feeder to overflowing with nuts in the shell so the feeder lid was open and placed the feeder on the ground where they are used to feeding. The first squirrel on the scene found easy access to the nuts and he could feel the lid moving up and down. By the time the nuts were gone off the top and the lid was all the way down he was used to the lid and was quickly lifting it and filling his plump little belly with nuts. He in turn is teaching the other squirrels to use it by his example. Tomorrow I will fill it with a nut and seed mix which is less expensive and I will still feed him nuts in the shell during the summer but only a couple of handfuls as a special treat. This is a wonderful feeder and the squirrels are more than smart enough to use it properly - you just have to give them a little help at the beginning - make sure the lid is propped open at the very beginning with nuts.
I very highly recommend this feeder. It is plexiglass in the front and all the rest is cedar. It is very well made and it should last for many years as long as you give the squirrels a proper chance at using it.

And I had a great chuckle over the efforts the crows and magpies made to try to get at the nuts. They saw the squirrels feeding and they thought they should get in on the action (even though they haven't been able to eat these nuts in the shell). They pecked HARD at the plexiglass which they couldn't break and checked it out from the top, back and sides and couldn't get in. Some of the birds were quite persistent about it but finally all of them had to give up and the squirrels finally have their own wonderful feeder.

This is a replacement for the one I have and the squirrels are accustomed to the style. I don't like having to fix it before using it.
