If you are a wild bird enthusiast, then you need to take a look at the American-made Droll Yankee bird feeder models. Just like how your yard can be home to a variety of wild birds, Droll Yankee makes more than 50 different bird feeders that you can choose from for your yard. Known for their quality build, a Droll Yankee bird feeder is easy to clean and fill so that you can enjoy many long hours of bird watching.
Bird feeders you can buy include sunflower feeders, peanut feeders, thistle feeders and suet feeders. If you want to get the birds close, you can opt for a window feeder. You should place a decal, decoration or something similar, however, on the window to reduce window collisions. You can also use a bird feeder to attract a specific type of bird, such as with a hummingbird feeder .
One of the best things about these bird feeders is that they are backed by a lifetime warranty. If you get a defective bird feeder, it is replaced for free. And if your bird feeder gets some squirrel damage, it is replaced for free. In fact, Droll Yankee guarantees their bird feeders to be squirrel proof.
Your bird feeder should be placed high and out of reach of any cats, including strays. Tweety Bird, of Looney Toons fame, is not the only bird in danger when cats are near. You should also take care to not have the feeder near where you spray pesticides or other chemicals. These things are toxic to birds.
Putting a bird feeder out in your yard can really turn it into a sanctuary for the birds. It offers them a nesting site, a place safe from predators and bad weather, and it gives them good, natural food. After putting up one of the bird feeders, you can just sit back with a field guide and a pair of binoculars to wait. Before long, you can be identifying wilds birds like the white-throated sparrow, the American robin and the black-capped chickadee.
