tomburras 2,729 Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 How does it work with bird feeders can you get certain foods to try and attract different birds or are you just stuck with whatever birds are in your area ? You'll just get the birds that are in the area mate. Probably be surprised what birds are there though when you start feeding the place. Since I started the bird table it was suprising what turned up. Loads more birds and bird species iv never even round seen here before, and each week it gets busier as they are getting more confident. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
