How can I attract birds to my bird feeders?

Posted by admin
Brokn asked:


We live in the midwest and I’ve hung out 6 bird feeders, we’re offering niger seed, sunflower seed, mixed seed, suet…I also have a heated dish with water. All we get is squirrels which I don’t want. My neighbors just dump a 25 pound bag of seed on their grass and the birds go over there but they don’t come to my feeders…even when the neighbors seed is used up. I also put out bread crumbs and bits of strawberries hoping some birds that like fruit would stop by. I’ve taken down a flag thinking may be it was scaring them. Any ideas?

      The web but few things impact what you can make fast getaway any possibilities youve got cats lurking on the birds are other types will either want to eat out in the open where things cant sneak up on them while others will like to cover different birds are ground eaters maybe you.
