Bird Feeders

Most people start with one feeder and end up with three. A hopper handles the everyday crowd — sparrows, juncos, the occasional nuthatch working its way down headfirst. Add a tube feeder with smaller ports and the finches find it inside a week. Squirrel-resistant bird feeders are worth considering if you’ve got a yard full of oak trees. The selection runs from straightforward hanging styles to covered platform feeders that keep seed usable after a few days of Ozarks rain.
