Siting
A quiet location with a good view from the house is normally the best place. This allows you to enjoy observing the garden birds while they feed with little disturbance.
Choose a site sheltered from extremes of weather, but where the birds have a good all-round view, so they can see that they are safe from predators while they feed.
The feeder should be safely away from cat ambush sites. A small bush or a tree about two meters from the feeder gives the birds somewhere safe to perch while they look to see if it is safe to feed, to ‘queue up’ for a place on the feeder, and to dash to if disturbed.
Sow Creative Woodcraft’s wildflower seed mix nearby to help encourage birds, bees, butterflies and other beneficial insects.
Feeding
