Female Eastern Bluebird Getting Dried Mealworms From Feeder
This is the story of how I tried to use a Squirrel Buster Standard feeder to offer dried mealworms to Eastern Bluebirds. In the end, it turned out not to be the best way to do it. But I learned a lot about Eastern Bluebirds and European Starlings in the process . . . and did find a better feeder choice for this purpose in the end.
There are many ways to hang suet feeders. But what is the best way? My approach to offering suet to birds evolved over several years. Through a lot of trial and error with feeder type and placement, I’ve learned a lot along the way and where to hang them. My current suet set-up has been working wonderfully for season after season. Now I don’t have to stress over it at all. It just works.
