Create A Backyard Paradise For Wild Birds With Hopper Bird Feeders

With just a little imagination, a few bucks, and a little bit of time you can create a backyard paradise for wild birds using hopper bird feeders and other styles if necessary.

Love the simple life? Enjoy having a little nature in your back yard? Perhaps you are even a birdwatcher? It doesnt matter your reason. What matters is that you are considering inviting your avian friends into your space.

There are three basic feeder designs which include platform feeders that are flat and open with a screened bottom; tube feeder which are long cylinders that are usually filled with sunflowers and provide perching along the base; the hopper feeder is shaped like a house and it is the style most of us are familiar with.

The hopper is a great choice for several reasons. Price, size, style options, and most importantly it holds a fair amount of seed so you do not have to fill it daily. It works well hung or set on a post. And its a style that both little and big birds love.

There are also some specialty feeders like the hummingbird feeder. These little darlings are a great addition to any yard and it only takes a little effort to entice them. Start with a six to a dozen hummingbird feeders that are filled with sugar water. The more the merrier and the more likely they will arrive.

There are plenty of great birdfeeders available to buy such as Opus, Droll Yankee, Duncraft, and Woodllink feeders. If youd prefer to build your own there are all kinds of plans available online and some of them are even free. And you can also buy a house thats completed except for the detailing such as painting or staining.

To get the biggest enjoyment out of your yard you need to mix up the type of feeders. Try not only different types but also different sizes, and a mix of locations. This will attract a mix of bird species.

There are many different styles of hopper feeders on the market so no matter what size, shape, or style you want a quick online search will reveal some great options and some great pricing too.

So are you ready to create a backyard paradise with your hopper bird feeders?
