Bird feeder
I need to make or buy a feeder for small birds - finches - that won't
allow the bigger birds to feed from it. Any suggestions, please? TIA David |

TIA David My Mum used to put feed out inside a large cocky's cage. Only the little sparrows and finches were able to get inside and the #$*%^% Indian Mynas and Spotted Turtledoves were stuck outside.

Plant a thicket or hedge of native plants wherever one will fit....
This will give protection for the birds, nesting sites and food sources for the little friends SyrianPrince "Tathraman" wrote in message oups.com... I need to make or buy a feeder for small birds - finches - that won't allow the bigger birds to feed from it. Any suggestions, please? TIA David |

I have a plant called Finch Grass -- Eragrostis something.
