This hummingbird comes to our backyard feeder almost every 15-20 minutes in day time during the summer. The feeder is right outside the window. We have best view of seeing him dancing around the feeder. Beautiful bird indeed.

A window bird feeder is a fantastic way to view garden birds up close. This is great as an educational tool for children and they can make photography easier. Bird feeders also safe place for birds to eat as predators are unlikely to come that close to the home. Window feeders are great for apartments or homes with inaccessible gardens.

Nearly all types of birds will be attracted to a window bird feeder but for more skittish birds there is the option of a feeder with a two way mirror which will allow you to watch the birds without disturbing them.

There are two types of window feeders, ones which attach the window and ones placed inside a windowsill. Feeders which are attached to the window make use of suction cups or Velcro to remain stuck on the glass. This type is usually smaller than windowsill feeders and will typically fit any size window easily. The benefits of this type of window feeder are that you could mount more than one feeder to each window.

The windowsill feeders protrude into the house via an open window. It will normally rest inside on the windowsill and will have adjustable side pieces which extend to the sides of the windowsill to close off as much of the open space as possible. This type of window bird feeder often has larger trays and can therefore hold more bird feed and birds. The downfall of this type is that you have to keep the window open at all times which can provide problems with alarm systems and can also let cold in during the winter months.

It is a good idea to place the feeder in a window that faces an area which has proven to attract birds to your garden; this is usually near their favorite flowers, shrubs or trees. Also pick a window that is easily viewed from the inside of the house so that yourself and guests can enjoy the birds. It is also important that the window bird feeder is accessible so that it can be easily reached to refill and clean.

Most bird feeders are made from a high quality UV stabilized clear polycarbonate material, this is a durable material which will not deteriorate or turn yellow over time.

The size of the window bird feeder needed depends on how many birds you would like to attract and how often you would like to have to refill the feeder. Before you go out to purchase your feeder, check the dimensions of your chosen window to make sure that you get the most suitable option.

This was taken early in the morning of April 21, 2011 outside our bedroom window where we and our cat noticed a deer eating from our bird feeder.

Just like people, birds have particular tastes in food. You’d never find a vegetarian waiting in line at the hot dog stand any more than you’d find a goldfinch eagerly awaiting a dinner of milo. In order to attract the type of bird that you want at your feeder you need to adjust your bird feeder seeds. Sometimes several feeders are necessary.

Goldfinch lovers and mourning dove admirers should supply a feeder that contains thistle, also known as niger seed. This highly nutritious seed is rich in both protein and fat. House finches, redpolls, siskins, juncos and purple finches also love these seeds. The best way to serve the seeds to the birds is in a tube feeder. Cardinals, by the way, hate to eat from a tube feeder.

If you want a seed that is the favorite of most seed eating birds, try black oil sunflower seeds. The outer shells are soft enough so smaller seed eating birds can crack them, but the inside is the primary reason for the popularity. This meaty seed provides not only a high amount of fat but quality protein for the feathered friends. Bluejays prefer the black stripe sunflower for their bird feeder seed and goldfinches like a smaller black oil sunflower seed. Many times the smaller seeds are more inexpensive and last longer because there are more to the pound.

You can keep gackles and starlings away and attract cardinals, chickadees, downey woodpeckers, nuthatches and titmice with safflower seed. Most squirrels don’t bother with this fare either so it leaves the feeder full for your feather friends.

Millet, often used as a filler in mixed wild bird feed, find praise from cardinals, juncos, doves, house finches and sparrows. Most of them prefer the white variety of millet and kick the red millet bird feeder seed to the ground. However, if you put out corn you’ll get the blackbirds, bluejays, and the friendly squirrel back at the feeder.

If you love cardinals then try some shelled unsalted peanuts. They love it. Watch out though, you’ll have a lot of squirrels competing for those nuts. Squirrel like peanuts almost more than sunflower seeds.

When you feed the birds, make certain that you keep the feeder clean. Clean it out once a month and dry it thoroughly. Seeds that get damp, mold. Bacteria grows on the feeder and spreads to the diners. Leaving your feeder dirty can cause a great deal of harm to the birds.

Keep a separate feeder for suet. You can use suet cakes or make your own treat for the birds. Melt down animal fat from the butcher and mix it with bird feeder seed. Another taste treat for birds that goes well at a suet feeder is a ball of peanut butter mixed with seeds. Birds love it and it’s far more appropriate in the summer months than the heavy animal fat.

Regardless of the time of year, all birds need water. Water attracts as many birds as feed in winter months and hot dry summer weather. If you live in the Frozen North, get a heater for your birdbath to prevent the water from freezing.

So, chose the birds that you want and find the feed that brings them to you. Avoid inexpensive feed that contains a lot of fillers when you buy bird feeder seed. You’ll find that it’s cheaper in the long run to buy good seed that the birds eat, rather than inexpensive food that doesn’t get eaten.
