I have a few different types of feeders. I have 2 suet feeders that the woodpeckers really enjoy; a ball feeder that I fill with sunflower seeds that the squirrels and cardinals like; 4 regular hanging feeders with perches that have a mixture of sunflowers, mixed songbird feed, safflower seeds, and millet, that attracts the different wrens and nuthatches, house and purple finches, cardinals, eastern bluebirds, and Carolina chickadees; a tray feeder that I put shelled corn in for the squirrels and cardinals; and I have a rock wall along the back of my yard that I spread shelled corn along for all of the animals that come along. I have had norther flickers, different types of doves, bluejays, crows, sparrows and grosbeaks at my house last year. He/she is not in my yard but at the pond behind my house ,a very pretty blue heron. Canadian Geese come along often too, and they have one white goose leading one flock of them.
I enjoy sitting out on the deck with my camera and a cup of coffee and watching all of them fly around a try to decide which feeder has just what they want.
