  1. There are several factors that go to seed to attract birds. If there are no predators in the vicinity, cats, shelters and there are good trees and shrubs. Can the seeds, where they are. Some bird feeders not put the seed where birds can see over the seed. If this happens to a seed in a flat on the floor when I feed the birds that can start up another. These are birds that have seen the chaos in the sunflowers. You're better off starting with a mixture of seeds after their similar birds. You will see that this mixture varies throughout the year, as the birds pass through the region seasonally. (At least here they are) may well ask. When you check to see a lot of birds in an area with local landowners, it is likely that the birds feed and see how you can attract them. I've also noticed that some birds live not only in individual investors. I guess it's because they do not feel safe on this link. They generally have a low opinion of someone who escapes from her, while they eat. Freshly cut wood is also a disturbing factor. When replacing an old wornLeaving you with a power supply with the same design and the same wood, the birds took a while to start again with the charger. This was not a month. Bird houses are the same, they are not you a bird house, until the time has come for a while.

  3. You need a mixture of seeds from a variety of different things. Peanut, sunflower, sorghum, cashew nuts, etc. To the best seed mix much more expensive. We bought a local grocery Audubon Society suggests.
    You need to keep the whole magazine is always possible. A bird bath so far would be great too. 20 to 30 feet away for the hulls of the seeds will not be there. Then you have to fill up with water at any time thereon. You also get clean because of the algae. A new toilet brush for cleaning large works.

  4. the first time ... always well filled. I had the same situation with my bird feeders. I realized that, after the squirrel and began to pour the seeds and feed the pigeons were presented. Feeding pigeons on the ground and found nothing. After examination of other birds, feeding pigeons on the ground began to go mad. Last winter, I counted 37 pigeons. Alfred Hitchcock was like shooting.

    Do not worry ... To find you. I recommend buying a simple identifier Bird (book) to do and serious things. Every morning I drink coffee and birds to be identified. Even a suet feeder was ... attracts woodpeckers and other rare birds. I saw some rare birds in my garden.

    Good luck

  6. We live in NW Houston (Willowbrook area) for over 20 years. There were many Cardinals and Blue Jays in our diet. Both seed and sunflower oil. It appears that you have a problem with the charger in the vicinity, or perhaps a cat in the region.

    Most birds are like the shrubs or trees near the place where you and the country can feel safe before in the charger dare. Cardinals, especially as large shrubs for protection.

  7. If you do not get to get the birds to try their investors, a bird bath ..

    The birds come to water, if not the seed is eaten.
    Platform and attempt to deliver, some birds do not eat, tube feeders.
    If you are transferring cats, small amounts of feed from the bird seed on the ground floor only.
    Try to research on birds that are trying to win and find out what are your preferences.
    Fein win if you want, birds like the bluebird feeding at the troughs, you can put up Bluebird houses.

    Birds are addicted in one day, I counted 34 different species in my garden, I like birds.
    Here are some sites that can help.

  8. It depends on the area in May. My investors are hanging from the trees, and there are many things to fly and land.

    I have 2 sets of handrails and thousands of trees. If you see that countries in the trees, then the rails of the hand (mostly) and Shuttle.
