Our favorite buntings are at the platform feeders most of the year.

In our area of the country we have a variety of buntings who use our platform feeders depending on the time of year. The Painted Buntings are with us for the summer so it is important that we keep a steady supply of millet for them. They also like using the larger window platform feeders like the cedar one and the one made from recycled plastics. (Both of these feeders are shown in the lower sections of this page.) These REALLY bring the birds close. We usually have two pairs of Painted Buntings that are regulars at our pond and feeders.

During Spring and Fall migration we have Indigo Buntings and, more and more, we are seeing Lazuli Buntings. This is when the ground platform feeders play a major role. If we position them outside our largest windows we are sure to be able to watch and count the birds. We don't want to miss any surprises. The birds like the raised ground feeders. We'll find birds in the feeders, around them and under them. Some millet seeds must pop out of their bills to spread on to the ground. NOTE: Having the feeders near the windows increases the chance of bird strikes against the glass. If we see birds zipping too close to the windows we more the feeders farther into the yard.

Squirrel Blocking Design

Product Category:
Platform Bird Feeders

These platform bird feeders have a special design which works if you follow the advice from the manufacturer. The feeders are metal so they should not suffer from small animal damage (bears are not small animals!) and the system should block squirrels from taking ALL THE SEEDS you set out in one short visit.

If you spread a layer of sunflower seeds on the bottom of the tray, the two grid system will allow birds to feed but squirrels can not directly reach their muzzles or paws into the tray. We suppose they could reach their tongues through for individual seeds. The roof provides some protection from sun and rain which keeps your seeds fresh longer.

The platform feeders can be hung or pole mounted. Five year guarantee from manufacturer.
Dimensions:
Bottom tray measures 12 x 14-1/2 x 1-1/2 inches
Roof is 16 x 13-3/4 inches

Don't forget butterflies love fruit filled platform feeders too!

Many of these open (no roof) platform feeders are suitable for attracting butterflies. Select a sunny spot with the least amount of wind. A location near some native butterfly flowers would be perfect. They will sip from fruit especially fruit that is decomposing and getting soupy. Search online for recipes for butterfly fruit brew. You could create a puddling and feeding station in these feeders. Fill a shallow bowl with sand and wet it when you can spend time watching. The moisture should glisten and attract the butterflies. (The dual feeders to the left are perfect for wet sand and fruit.) Platform bird feeders don't have to be limited to feeding wild birds.
