Feeders made from heavier gauge plastic and acrylic and those with metal fittings generally last longest. If you prefer a wood feeder, cedar and cypress are best, and they're environmentally friendly. Capacity To avoid constant refilling, select a feeder with ample capacity. One to two quarts is about right. Expect to refill a busy feeding station every 1 to 2 days in winter. Simplicity Your feeder should be easy to assemble, set up, fill, clean, and maintain. Consider esthetics, too. Sometimes simple designs look best in yards and gardens. Safety Look for a feeder that keeps seed dry, insuring no spoilage. Make sure birds cannot enter a feeder or get their heads stuck in feeding ports.
