Bird feeding is a major pastime with many people. For some people putting up a bird feeder is done just for fun or to share food with the birds around them. For others it is a serious hobby. Bird watching is a major pastime with some folks. If one is into bird watching you can either go out in the woods to look for them, or you can “invite” them to your home. In order to do this you will need to set up a decent bird feeder as they are an excellent way to attract the birds you would like to see. One such birdfeeder that is very popular with bird watchers is the Yankee flipper bird feeder.
Most other bird feeders come with inherent problems. They will be designed in such a way that other animals such as squirrels can come and easily take the food. With Yankee flipper bird feeders this is simply not possible. This type of bird feeder is different from others in the way that it is designed to keep away squirrels and other rodents from the food. This type of bird feeder is usually designed with a cage around it and a battery operated squirrel proof mechanism. It is this mechanism which helps keep away animals other than birds.

For those people who are serious bird watchers it will mean that many different birds will start to visit their garden. From this it can be seen that it will fulfill an important garden need. Another important element of the Yankee flipper bird feeder is that it will have a plate at the bottom. This will catch any extra bird feed which otherwise may end up being wasted or eaten by squirrels.

If something with the weight of a squirrel climbs on it, the mechanism will activate in such a way that it actually flips the squirrel off the feeder! It will deter both red and grey squirrels. The hole in which the bird reaches the seed is designed so that only birds will be able to reach it. No matter how it is looked at this type of bird feeder will be a great addition to any garden. |
