I have some shepard's hooks that I'm going to set some feeders up on soon. I'm going to make the feeders though. I'm thinking a platform feeder and something for suet. I'm also going to buy a few of those thistle socks for the finches.
Does anyone have an recommendations as to the setup?? Perches and such?
Hi Kyle,
I don't think that the birds are too picky. It's nice to have a setup so that you can place different perches around for different compositions. One thing I can recommend is to add some type of water feature. This will bring in just as many birds as the feeder.
