Bird Feeders An easy way to attract birds is to put up a bird feeder. In cities it is best to use feeders with small perches suited for smaller birds that will not easily spill seed on the ground. Spilled food may attract rodents and larger flocks of unwanted birds. Nectar feeders (or hummingbird feeders) are a great way to attract birds. Please don’t use red dyes. Simply dissolve 1/4 cup sugar in 1 cup hot water and let the mixture cool. Your feeder may attract hummingbirds, orioles, and downy woodpeckers. Nyger seed feeders or thistle socks are also ideal
