I’ve had bunches of bird feeders but squirrels eat the food. I’ve tried those bird feeders that squirrels ‘can’t get on’ but they still do!!! What should I do?

Why won’t birds use my bird feeder?

Tom C asked:


My 2 bird feeder are positiones about 5ft high hanging off a tree in the middle of the garden, one is full of peanuts, the other a mixture of seeds. There are plenty of birds in the garden yet none seem particularly interested. Is it because the feeder is too exposed? I am confused.

Birds Not Interested in Very Attractive Bird Feeder?

Sunday, January 13th, 2008
Speedy Synchro Swimmer asked:


I bought a new bird feeder after Christmas and it is placed where the store clerk told me to place it (near a vine that the birds enjoy resting on); however, it has been two months and no bird has even looked at it. Is this typical in the winter when it is freezing or do they not like my hospitality?
The feeder is attractive to the birds (it is advertised as being attractive to birds). It is not bright or offensive or anything. It is a bird feeder that looks more natural so that birds will feel more comfortable eating out of it. It is designed specifically for the birds in my front yard.

I have put up a bird feeder and I have a cat stalking it?

Tuesday, January 1st, 2008
Steffy asked:


I love animals and I dont want to hurt this cat, heck I put up the bird feeder for my cats to watch birds, they love it. But……this big old grey cat hunts it, he took a little red finch out the other day. I saw it, just disgusted me! I don’t want to ‘bait’ the birds but I love having my bird feeder…help! How can I get rid of this cat without hurting him?
Just so you know I am not baiting the birds. Also, the feeder is on a wooden pole cemented into the ground and stands just about 5 feet tall.
