Wild Bird Feeder

Large Bird Feeders

Large bird feeders come in all different styles and shapes. Bird feeding is fun, and the right feeders help even more. A large bird feeder not only help give birds the food they need, especially in the winter, they make great lawn ornaments.

Large birds love platform feeders for its roomy footing.  The feeder should be placed in an area of abundant natural shelter, such as a tree or hedge, but out of reach for squirrels, mice and cats.

Wherever you find bird feeders, you can be rest assured that the bird feeder will be frequented by squirrels.  Squirrels can have access to the food in a bird feeder and consume most of the food within a short time period if you don’t take measures to avoid it.  As a result, bird watchers have had to constantly refill the bird feeders at great expense.

Having multiple feeders can really be nice because you will be able to have birds in several different areas of your backyard.  They would dominate a feeder for hours, thus preventing hungry birds from reaching the feeders.

When you decide which type of large bird feeders you want, you will need to decide if you are going to make or buy it.
