I got this bird feeder a couple months ago and have had limited success enticing the birds onto it. I knew that the spot was a good one as all kinds of birds including waxeyes frequent the tree next to it. The best result I had was when half a loaf of bread got past its best by date and was put all in the one spot, then even the waxeyes stopped in to have a look at it. However yesterday I purchased a suet and birdseed ball from Fresh Meats at Barrington and now this bird restaurant is a hotspot with rave reviews. I captured this shot of a waxeye dining there but there were many others that came and dined too.
