What a moment-of-action capture! I must be doing something wrong -- I have purchased and put out seven feeders of different types and -- no birds. Sigh.
@stevejacob -- I have one attached to my kitchen window, I have two under the maple tree (rather hidden), one under the river birch (somewhat open) and three completely open. I hesitated to put them under trees too much because I have this very friendly squirrel who would jump all over the feeders. Must learn more how to attract birds. I'm even feeding my squirrel in a completely different area of the yard. I have a question -- when the bird seeds get wet from rain, do birds still eat them?
@stevejacob I live in a Chicago suburb and I bought black sunflower seeds with some kind of pepper so Oliver doesn't eat them all up. And I bought some suet squares and I put out grape jelly and oranges.
