Anonymous Coward User ID: 1324071 United States 01/04/2012 08:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I don't know what's happened to the birds this winter, but 3 weeks ago I put a feeder on the kitchen window and filled it with black sunflower seeds, and haven't seen a single bird!! The feeder is still full with seeds. Quoting: Blue jay 7564612 I've put this feeder up in the past, it attaches to the window and allows you to view the birds up close. Anytime I've put it up in the past, the birds found it within a day and soon it was filled, mostly with finches but we did get cardinals, sparrows, etc. SO WHERE ARE THE BIRDS???!?!?!?!?! your seeds may have gotten wet and moldy. They will not touch them if they are not good. |

OP I apologize, you must be my neighbor. One of my wife's fat cats are sitting under the feeder eating the poor birds. No matter how much you feed them they go out and kill. Everything that moves! I so dislike my wife's cats. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 3991586 United States 01/04/2012 10:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yes, OP, it could be doom, but as I said - Quoting: Anonymous Coward 3991586 WHERE ARE YOU? People post all the time about stuff, and never say WHERE THEY LIVE. Oh sorry - Long Island NY Okay. That is very doomy. Just to clear up one more thing - since some people think this is the problem - are your seeds dry and mold free? Not that I think that is the problem. I have never seen birds refuse them. And they take only a few days to find new stuff. Did you know a lot of people have had dreams of a tsunami over New York city? |

So Not a Princess User ID: 2928512 United States 01/04/2012 10:28 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | We have our usual winter birds flocking to our feeders, and we also let the squirrels come. Our neighbor uses a whirl-a-squirrel feeder to knock them off his bird feeder, so we make sure to get them fed, too. I've not noticed a decrease in "customers" over previous years, this in the Houston area. However, this year we have been visited several times by a falcon that has made a few kills. Any advice as to how to deal with this predator? He flies off if I or my dogs go outside, but I can't be there all the time watching out for the little birds. And, no, I'm not going to shoot him. I like all birds, I just wish this one would not have breakfast in my backyard on the smaller birds. Sometimes I see him sitting on our fence, sometimes on a utility wire, and once on the boxwood hedge under my feeders.
