The 10 Best Bird Feeders Money Can Buy

Bird Feeder

Buying a bird feeder shouldn’t be stressful, but it isn’t exactly easy either—especially if you’re serious about your birds. There are hundreds of bird feeders to choose from out there, and you need to pick the right one for the right kind of bird to come. Birds aren’t finicky creatures; but just like any animal, they do have their preferences. Bird feeders can range in size, shape, functionality, and cost. It’s also important to consider the kind of work the feeder will be giving you once you’ve put it up. To get you started, here are the 10 best bird feeders your money can buy.

10. Nature’s Way Bird Products Cedar Platform Tray Bird Feeder

Most feeders you find on the market are actually too small for birds to use. If you want to attract a wide variety of birds to your garden or porch, one good feeder to try is the Nature’s Way Cedar Platform Tray. The tray is made with a durable and rot resistant cedar, and it’s self-explanatory to use. You put birdseeds onto the rubber-coated mesh once you’ve hung up your feeder where you like. There are no size restrictions on the kind of birdseed you can use, but smaller seeds do tend to fall through the mesh.

9. Perky Pet Copper Panorama Bird Feeder

Maybe you prefer smaller birds to larger species. If that’s you, the Perky Pet Copper Panorama is best to use. This is a compact feeder that works in smaller areas. It’s too small for large birds to use, so it’s best for attracting sparrows and finches. This feeder can hold up to 2 lbs. of birdseeds, and it has a 360-degree circular perch at the bottom. It’s best to use in a sheltered location to protect the seeds from water.

8. Cherry Valley Feeders Woodlink Sunflower Stake Feeder

With its unique and attractive design, the Cherry Valley Feeders Woodlink Sunflower Stake Feeder can be mistaken for simple garden décor. The center part of the flower is filled with birdseeds and serves as the main feeder. What’s unique about this feeder is it stakes onto the ground. You won’t have to worry about hanging it anywhere or have it fall and break. If you have a paved space with no ground to stake on, this feeder can be put on a pot with some soil in it.

7. Wosibo Deck Hook Bird Feeder

Even if you lived in the city or a condo with no yard, you can still feed birds around you. The Wosibo Deck Hook Bird Feeder attaches to patio railing. It’s a sturdy and easier alternative to individual hanging feeders. The bird feeder features two hooks for hanging the feeder box and a décor of your choice. It also comes with two trays that can be adjusted to your liking. These can be used for water so birds can have a sip or have a bath.

6. Droll Yankees Big Top

Squirrels are notorious for taking birdseeds in bird feeders. If you have this problem in your area, the Droll Yankees Big Top is the solution. The feeder features a big dome that can be adjusted vertically to prevent squirrels from stealing seeds. You can also adjust it to attract different sized birds. The higher the dome, the larger the birds that can come. The reservoir can hold up to 3lbs of seeds at a time and features 8 ports for eating.

5. Grateful Gnome Hummingbird Feeder

If you want to specifically attract hummingbirds, you can’t just use any regular birdfeeder. You’ll want the Grateful Gnome Hummingbird Feeder. Made out of blown glass, this feeder is attractive to hummingbirds and people too. It can hold up to 20oz of nectar and features 4 ports for hummingbirds to hang out at.

4. Droll Yankees Ring Pull Silver Sunflower Feeder

Birds such as cardinals and robins specifically like to eat sunflower seeds. To attract these types of birds, set up a Droll Yankees Ring Pull Silver Sunflower Feeder, which is made to hold sunflower seeds. It comes in an easy to use and durable tube design, the largest of which can hold up to 2.5 pounds of seeds. It also comes with several feeding ports so many birds can enjoy treats at the same time. The ring pull design allows you to disassemble the feeder quickly.

3. Twinkle Star Wild Bird Feeder

Affordable and adorable, the Twinkle Star Wild Bird Feeder is a favorite among bird lovers. It can hold a wide variety of birdseeds, and it’s easy to clean and fill up. It’s also compact so it’s perfect for smaller spaces. It’s only 8 inches tall. Even so, larger birds such as Blue Jays can still comfortably use this feeder. Just keep in mind that this feeder is fair game for squirrels too.

2. Uncommon Goods Glass House Bird Feeder

It’s beautiful and functional. The Uncommon Goods Glass House Bird Feeder allows you to watch birds right outside of your window. The feeder attaches to your window and is small enough to not be intrusive. It can be used in any home-type setting, so even if you lived in a high-rise, the feeder could still work. It only holds a little bit of birdseeds at a time, so you’ll likely have to refill often depending on how many birds come to your feeder.

Sturdy, sleek, and squirrel proof. This bird feeder checks all the boxes. It’s one of the largest bird feeder options out there and is designed for feeding a lot of birds in one time.
