This week’s wildlife advice column offers tips on making your bird feeder more attractive to avian guests.
How long does it usually take birds to discover a new feeder? I’m new at this.It’s sort of miraculous that birds find feeders at all. They’re soaring 20 to 30 feet above our yards, keeping one eye out for predators and avoiding sudden downdrafts, all while keeping the other eye out for food, water and shelter.
Hang your feeder in a spot where it is more easily seen from above. Under a shady tree is not the best spot. If you plant bright flowers, that might get their attention, but birds also want to feel safe, so shrubs, evergreen trees and vines growing near a feeder will give them a place to escape to in case danger comes calling. Plants also give the birds a spot to sit and recharge their batteries.
