Large birds need love too, so make sure they are accommodated in your yard with the Perky-Pet® Hanging Tray Bird Feeder. Its versatile design caters to larger birds that are unable to perch at the seed feeders intended for small birds. It’s also perfect for other types of birds that are partial to ground feeding, allowing those birds to dine how they prefer without making a mess all over your lawn. With this buffet for birds, you’ll be able to attract a wider variety of birds than ever before.
Featuring a wood frame, the Hanging Tray Feeder is sturdy and built to last. It will remain balanced while your large visiting birds stop to dine. The bottom of the feeder is made of metal mesh to allow easy water drainage so that food remains fresh and dry. This feeder isn’t just for seed either! In addition to your preferred seed blends, the Hanging Tray Feeder can alternatively hold mealworms or a variety of fruits for your sweets-loving feathered friends.
The open design of this feeder provides complete seed access to birds, while also making it incredibly easy to fill, empty and clean! To fill, simply add up to 1.6 lb of seed or other food to the tray and you’re ready to go. Installation is also a breeze thanks to the built-in hanging hook.
Great feeder that draws the most variety! Just about every bird will feed off this. Since deploying this one I have seen birds that I have never observed feeding off the other types of feeders. Species such as mocking birds, towhees and other ground feeding birds all readily feed from this type of feeder. For whatever reason, some species just don't ever figure out the other type feeders like mesh ,tubes and the like. That is not the case with this one. I have mine on the deck in front of a glass sliding door very close to the house since the placement detracts grackles from approaching it and gobbling up all the food. I have installed Acopian Bird savers on the door to keep birds from colliding with the glass. Please google Acopian Bird savers if you are not aware of this important bird saving device as it is a MUST if you place this close to any glass. I use shelled peanuts, sunflower seed and unshelled peanuts which seems to satisfy all birds.
