Bird feeding is invaluable year-round, as these charming feathered creatures seek refuge in our yards. But, what many don't realize is that different types of feeders are suited to different times of year.
It's a crucial part of feeding garden birds to get right, especially during the heat of summer where food spoils faster and can attract rodents. That's why having a smaller feeder is better at this time of year, so the food is being eaten before it becomes a health hazard. Opting for a cage bird feeder (like this one from Amazon) over a closed tube also provides airflow in the humidity and keeps mold at bay.
