Although space may be limited in your yard, you can still attract many species of wild birds. Offering suet and seed mixes, or even peanuts will entice Blue Jays, Nuthatches, Chickadees, Woodpeckers and many more. A small dish for feeding mealworms will likely bring Blue Birds too.
This bird feeder pole is a complete feeding station kit in one package. With five spots for feeders, food and water, you can bet it will get feathered friends’ attention! The tray holding suet balls may also be used for fruit in summer to attract those vibrant migrants like Tanagers, Orioles and others. The attached small bath is a super convenient way to offer a fresh water source for birds, the visual magnet that brings them home. For a central viewing spot, the Wild Bird Feeding Station is where it’s at!
Traditional shepherd’s hooks are a perfect choice for hanging bird feeders and even bird baths. Double arm shepherd’s hooks are better, as they’ll hold another item to attract more birds. A quad hook is the best!
A bird feeder pole with four arms (or attachments) will really let you customize the feeding area. Today on one pole, I noticed four species all perching together! A Downy Woodpecker, an Eastern Bluebird, One Purple Finch and one Titmouse. How cool that all these species can just chill together in the same place!
The Bluebirds are constantly standing watch for insects on the back bird feeder pole, which adjacent to the bluebird feeder itself. On this pole hangs a copper bath and stainless steel finch feeder, but the Bluebirds always hunt insects from the two top arms.
The other great thing about these poles is that its relatively easy to add a squirrel baffle. If the little pesky acrobats are getting into feeders, simply add a baffle to stop them in their tracks!
There are standard bird feeder poles found at garden centers and discount stores, you know the metal ones with ground stakes? They have an arm or two for hanging feeders or flower baskets, sometimes four arms. The problem with these poles when using bird feeders is squirrels…they shimmy right on up and raid the feeder!
This deluxe bird feeder pole actually has a built in squirrel baffle. 3 stainless steel springs enable the baffle to free float up and down and side to side. Squirrels cannot get past; guaranteed! It assembles in minutes without tools, and accommodates up to 8 feeders. Hang a bird bath, nesting material, flowers, suet, peanuts, and nectar feeders for hummingbirds and orioles. The choices are endless to create a birding oasis!
