Hey All,
I love to feed the birds and have 3 seed feeders as well as 3 suet/nut cake feeders. The birds are lovely to look at and they entertain my kitties to no end - Buddy "chatters" to them when they line up close to the house.
The problem is with the pigeons. I've tried to deplete and elimnate the "dross" from the one feeder that I get the cardinals at, but they still come around. We even have "seed catcher nets" to keep that off the grounds, but they still come around.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Spices? Cutouts of enemy animals? Anything?
Barbara
And forget about the one round small bird feeder in Gardener's Supply catalog the claims it is squirrel-proof - it isn't! What a story that is!
Any help would be appreciated.
