3 years ago by SquatchPodiatrist to c/pics

We recently got a bird buddy feeder and i just had to share our first visitor after 6 days of no action!

Why does it look like it's just on the floor under some outdoor chairs?

Lol that’s because it is. We are in an apartment and when it was hanging and swinging the birds weren’t interested. Unfortunately i have no where to plant a stake to mount it to the ground, so it’s just going to be our “floor feeder” until we move into a new home!

They sell a window mount.

Birds will not likely come to the feeder on the floor. Give them a safe location.

Thanks! I just ordered a wall mount off of Etsy to better accommodate our needs. I couldn’t rationalize the $20 shipping cost from Bird Buddy!

Lol. My first 25 events with mine - 1 red finch, 1 cardinal, 23 of the same black squirrel. And for the record, it ignored the alarm feature by the third attempt.
