As someone who JUST got a birdfeeder for my backyard....
😬
If it’s a hummingbird feeder, make sure you clean it weekly/regularly, otherwise it can spread disease.
Don’t get that red dyed nectar either, get the clear stuff; don’t fill the entire feeder; get a straw scrubber for the holes; make sure the feeder has those anti bee things, otherwise it can attract wasps. I don’t have to deal with squirrels, but good luck if you do.
Those are good tips! We currently have seed feeders. and are attracting lots of house finches, gold finches, and chickadees (and occasionally pigeons). We've considered getting hummingbird feeders, so will keep this post in mind!
