Squirrel Feeding on Suet Feeder
Posted by admin Filed Under Bird Suet Feeder with No Comments
This squirrel jumps from the gutter to this suet feeder which was intended for woodpeckers and other birds.
I would like some really, really simple ways to make some suet cakes for feed my wild birds in my bird suet feeder. I found a few recipes, but, I also have some other questions regarding this as well. Can I put in uncooked rice or pasta in the bird mix? Can I use Crisco instead of going to the butch
Read Full StorySuet is a great bird feed. It has a high fat content so contains a huge amount of energy that will help keep your birds warm and healthy - especially during the cold winter months. It is also a great feed during the spring months when birds are highly active with migration, mating and nest building.

October 6, 2008: Sometimes it just makes sense to have different places to feed your back yard wildlife. We tried many feeders and poles. Squirrels climbed onto the bird feeders and ate the seed. Deer also ate the birdseed. Finally, a solution: A feeding platform, a bird feeding station, and a squirrel lunchbox. Don’t worry about the deer: they eat the clover and dandelions in the grass. The bluejays also enjoy the platform. And the seed that drops from all of the feeders is picked up by the ground-feeding birds. The squirrels get black-oil sunflower seed, tiny pieces of apple, and nuts. The bird feeders have black-oil sunflower seed, wild bird seed, Nyjer thistle. There is a special treat cake in a metal basket, at the back. I’ll hang a suet cake in December, when the weather turns cold. Right now, I don’t have any hummingbird feeders, but I have plenty of nectar flowers that bloom in the summer and some that bloom in late fall and winter.

I love to watch the birds in my yard, my favorites are the bluebirds and the orioles. I usually have two suet cakes hanging from a shepards hook for them the feed on. The last couple of days though something has managed to knock the feeders down and eat the entire suet cake, do you think this could be those pesty bluejays or something else. We live on 5 acres with lots of trees around and lots of wildlife. If you think it is the bluejays which are very agreesive then do you have suggestions on how to get rid of them?

I’m making bird food with my nursery class on Monday, and need an alternative to lard or suet that I can find in my local supermarket.
The children are primarily Muslim, but I myself am vegetarian and don’t want to touch animal fat.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I have three feeders. One with mixed feed for all. One suet for woodpeckers (they are coming), and one with thistle for the smaller birds (usually, there is a feeding frenzy here).

The birds need enough calories to keep warm this season.
Are you insuring that the birds are getting enough food during this cold by keeping your bird feeders full?
Are you also providing suet as well?
