Make your yard a bird-watching wonderland by decorating it with bird feeders, bird baths and other bird accessories from Ace Hardware. With many varieties available online, it's easy to find the bird supplies to beckon your favorite type of feathery friends into your garden.

Where to Hang Bird Feeders

Welcome regional avian life to your front or backyard by hanging bird feeders from the branches of your trees. If you don't have a tree in just the right spot, feeder hooks are also available. These hooks attach to the wall or a stake in the ground to support the bird feeder of your choice.

Another option is a window bird feeder as it brings the action even closer by giving unbeatable views of feeding birds from the comfort of your home.

Choosing the Right Decorative Bird Feeders

Browse different models of decorative bird feeders that resemble gazebos, houses, lanterns and more, then filter through specific types of birds you’d like to attract, the number of feeding stations, and the feeding capacity. If you plan on accommodating many birds throughout your yard, you can opt for multiple smaller feeders or a couple of bird feeders with multiple ports.

Plastic, Metal and Wooden Bird Feeder Models

When comparing feeders, consider different materials. Many feeders make use of a combination of these materials, but it is important to know the benefits each can give.

  • A metal bird feeder is tough, durable and can keep out non-avian wildlife. It may be susceptible to rust.
  • A wooden bird feeder can bring rustic charm to outdoor living spaces. These feeders are durable and aesthetically appealing.
  • A plastic bird feeder is easy to hang and clean, lightweight, and does not corrode. Plastic feeders stand up to the elements well but may be vulnerable to squirrels.
  • Glass bird feeders look great and make attractive options for hummingbirds. They do not rust, are easy to maintain and should last with proper care.

What Should I Put in a Hummingbird Feeder?

Regardless of the type of feeder you set up, some birds prefer specific types of bird seed and food over others. For example, a hummingbird feeder uses nectar rather than birdseed to give them something to sip. You can further increase your chances of success with a plastic or glass hummingbird feeder, effective models for attracting these beautiful birds. Setting up multiple bird feeders can give you a greater chance to attract many birds to feed on your property.

What is a Suet Feeder?

A suet bird feeder typically appears as a small metal cage where the suet cake sits. They can be hung or mounted. Suet-feeding birds can perch on the metal wires while they feed, while the durable construction helps deter non-avian feeders from sneaking a taste. Suet feeders are a good choice if you have jays, starlings, chickadees, woodpeckers and nuthatches in your area.

Find Squirrel Proof Bird Feeders

Ensure that the birds are the only ones who get to munch by using squirrel-resistant bird feeders. Specially designed feeders make it difficult for squirrels to access food based on a few factors. They are usually made of metal for increased durability, may have a weight-trap mechanism to give out under a squirrel’s weight, and offer hanging versatility to keep food out of reach. You can also buy separate squirrel guards to add to existing plastic, wood, or metal bird feeders.
