Tube Feeders are a popular way to
feed birds with a variety of seed. A tube feeder can only be described exactly
as that – a “tube” feeder! A hollow cylinder with a number of feeding ports and
perches, tube feeders come in a variety of specifications – metal feeding ports
fight against squirrel damage, short perches to attract small birds and larger
perches to attract the larger birds, such as jays. Spiral tube feeders will
accommodate all size birds!
Thistle Seed Tube Feeders, so
special, we've dedicated a page for Finch Feeders alone!
A Sunflower/Mixed Seed Tube Feeder
will attract the widest variety of birds. Sunflower Feeders have larger holes
than thistle/nyjer tube feeders. They will attract such birds as cardinals,
chickadees, finches, nuthatches, redpolls, siskins, sparrows, titmice, and
woodpeckers. Great for clinging birds who like clinging and picking the seed
out!
Peanut Feeders are very popular
with woodpeckers.
