Bird Feeder Pole Extensions<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Do you need to make your Erva Shepherds Staff pole higher? When I purchased a new bird feeder, I wanted to hang it from my Erva dual shepherd’s hook pole, but I had a small problem. The feeder was so tall that it would hang lower than the top of the pole’s squirrel baffle. But talking with the folks at my local bird store (Mother Natures<\/a> in Columbia Maryland) I learned I could purchase extensions for the poles I have to make them taller. (2024 Note: Mother Nature’s has just converted to a Wild Birds Unlimited Store and will no longer be selling Erva poles but the extensions can be purchased from Erva directly.) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Erva 18″ Extensions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The poles I use are from Erva. They actually call them “Shepherds Staffs”<\/em>.  Each staff has two removable shepherd hooks on top, so I purchased two 18″ $7.99 metal extension pieces for each pole. (Note: Checking Amazon, I see them listed<\/a> but the price is higher. You can also see them on Erva’s website.<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Erva
Original Hook (left) and Pole Extension (right)<\/span> <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

To use them, simply take the shepherd’s hook off the top of the existing pole. Slide the extension into the bottom of the hook piece. (See photo above.) Then put that back into the slots on the pole. Instant height.<\/p>\n\n\n

My now taller poles have enough height on top to allow me to hang taller feeders. Simple. Easy. If you have this type of pole and find you need more height, check this out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
