Bluebird Feeders

special-sub-hdr.jpg (8717 bytes)

Not all birds eat seeds. To attract those that eat fruit and insects (bluebirds, mockingbirds, robins, and even warblers and thrushes) try mealworms, berries or other fruit, and suet. Many seed eating birds like woodpeckers and chickadees also enjoy fruit and bugs, too.

Monitor feeder in "open" position to fill, clean or attract new birds to the feederMonitor feeder in "closed" position - narrow opening allows bluebirds in & keeps other species out.Monitor Feeder by GoodPlanet
Designed for Eastern Bluebirds, but appeals to a variety of small birds. 3 main components: a roof, a base, & feeding tray. A mounting pole is also required (see options below).  A flat roof is ideal for landing, perching & surveying the scene. The base holds a feeding tray with a polycarbonate plastic insert - ideal for offering meal worms. The smooth, sturdy insert has steep sides to keep live worms inside, and is also great for offering fruit, suet dough, shelled seeds and other treats for bluebirds. The base can be raised and lowered with the simple thumbscrew to adjust the distance between roof and feeding tray - which determines the size of bird that can access the feeder. The "open position" (left) makes food source visible - ideal to attract newcomers or for feeding a variety of birds. When the space is reduced, or "closed" some small birds such as Bluebirds are able to enter but it's too narrow for larger species. Fill the tray with meal worms, berries, & bluebird treats.
     Mounting plates - for standard 1" diameter tubular pole - are included for roof and tray. Roof: 9¼" x 9¼"; tray: 8½" x 8½" x 2-5/8" #GPBBM  $28.95   (related: pole options below;  bluebird reference;   bluebird nesting boxes)

mealworm larvae & darkling beetleWhat is a "mealworm" you ask?
Mealworms are insects, not really worms. What appears to be a worm is the larval form of the darkling beetle. They make excellent feeders for small mammals, reptiles, and birds. Eager to learn more? Check this site sponsored by Wikipedia, or try searching Google.

Dorothy's Cardinal Feeder

 

Dorothy's Cardinal Feeder
by Droll Yankees
We met Dorothy, widow of the inventor of all things Droll Yankees, Peter Kilham, at the BirdWatch America show in Atlanta as they were introducing this new feeder. Since this feeder was Dorothy's idea, she was asking for feedback as to what to name it. Show attendants dropped name suggestions into a little box, and that's how this feeder came to be known as Dorothy's Cardinal Feeder. We think it is not only a great feeder for cardinals, but also for bluebirds, and others, and it's backed by Droll's awesome lifetime warranty. 15" diameter x 20" tall.  May be hung or pole mounted, and adjustable weather dome keeps out bigger birds (if desired), and inclement weather.   $68.50

Each window mount feeder we sell comes with suction cups, but we do recommend you replace them every 6-months. When installed correctly suction cups will hold quite a bit of weight - some studies have shown one large 2½" suction cup to hold up to seven pounds.

Mounting Tip: to ensure your suctions cups stay put, replace them every 6-months. Soak new cups in hot water 5-minutes and dry, clean surface where suction cup will be placed. Rub the dish of the cup with your thumb for 10 to 20 seconds (to apply a thin coat of natural oil from skin on the suction cup). Press cup firmly to flat surface (mirror, windows, etc.) and carefully hang item.

so who is this guy, J.J. Cardinal? click here to find out...J.J.'s Seed Feeder Selection Tips

The type of feeder you select will determine the species and variety of birds you'll attract to your backyard habitat. Birds the size of a blue jay or larger have difficulty dining from perches found on most tube style feeders; so if you desire only small songbirds consider one of the many tube style feeders. Interested in attracting the entire spectrum? Adding a seed tray to the bottom of a tube feeder helps manage debris and provide perching surface for larger birds, who also enjoy hopper and platform style feeders. Still stumped? Our library is filled with great resources, or one of my articles on feeder placement.
