After we moved to our new house, I decided that we should set up a bird feeder in our back yard to feed the birds during the cold winter months. I bought this great wooden bird feeder with a place for bird seed, and two suet feeders so the birds can get extra high-energy food during the winter season.
As you can see, some snow has gathered on top of the feeder (I brushed some of it off) and the feeder has been out there for at least two weeks...and no one has visited it! Does anyone know how to attract birds to a new feeder? I know that there might not be as many birds here in the winter, but a lot of them do stay here and probably just aren't familiar to visiting our neighborhood for food since the previous owners of the home didn't have any bird feeders outside.
I sprinkled some bird seed on the ground in the hopes that they might see it while flying overhead. Hopefully it doesn't get covered up with snow if it ends up snowing tonight.
You can also see our super cute shed in the background - loving our backyard and can't wait to sit out there in the summer!
