Platform feederThe fastest way to a bird’s heart is definitely through their stomach. Put up bird feeders and birds will certainly come to feed in your yard.

Adding raised edges to platform bird feeders transforms them into tray feeders. The tray feeder is an excellent choice because of its ease of use. It is easy to fill and holds a reasonable amount of seed. Look for feeders that display seed in full view because birds are attracted by the sight of food and by the sight of other birds eating. . Birds like a feeder with a raised ledge or perch that they can grasp while eating. Domed feeders are great for small birds like chickadees.

Platform bird feeders can be hung. A popular hanging model is the Aspect Vista Dome Feeder. The protective dome keeps seed dry and prevents squirrels from raiding. This birdfeeder works especially well as a mealworm feeder.

Plan to refill your bird feeders as early as possible every morning so the birds are greeted with fresh seeds. Place your feeder in an open area with cover that’s only a couple of feet away so birds can dive for cover if threatened. Choose a site protected from strong winds.
