BIRD PEOPLE ARE HAPPY PEOPLE

Recycled Suet Feeder with Tail Prop

I am thrilled with the Recycled Suet Feeder with Tail Prop. The suet feeder is robust in appearance, easy to fill and aesthetically pleasing to view from my kitchen window. The woodpeckers are delighted by this new addition.. I anticipate adding a few more of these suet holders on our property as we establish various feeding stations within view of our house. I am also delighted that recycled materials are being used in the construction of these suet holders.

On a different note, I wish to comment on the excellent customer service I received regarding a shipping concern. The issue was addressed swiftly. Thank you to The Happy Birdwatcher Co. for their quality products, birdseed and customer service.

OMG! This is so great

As an amateur bird watcher, I had no idea that I could feed certain birds. I live in Hawaii and have an abundance of birds but the cardinals are seldomly seen and I have a fondness for them. I purchased the cardinal feed and its magical. The doves and minahs are not very interested but the cardinals definitely are. I highly recommend!!

They can’t eat it fast enough

I refill the suet feeder and less than 24 hours later it is empty again.

Convenient

I like the quality of the bird seed, the convenience, the letter that comes with each box and the environmentally packaged box. A variety of birds like the sunflower chips year round and this is what I order now.

Great quality

I got a variety of birds. They seemed to love it. So quality. Hate it’s expensive after shipping added in but a wonderful brand.

Woodpecker Feeder

This feeder was the seventh type that I added to my setup. I feed at least twenty species of birds, regularly including three species of woodpeckers who also enjoy the suet in the suet holder. Not only do the woodpeckers use this feeder but also, crows, finches, and nuthatches. This was a great addition to my garden. The birds not only amuse me, but my daughter is also growing fond of them. I am leaving for three weeks on vacation, and she is coming to my house to take care of my two dogs. When I was giving her feeding instructions, she said, now show me how to feed the birds. The birdseed is also great. When I first set out my feeders, I did not know how to judge how much I needed. I initially ran out of see from Birdwatchers and purchased another brand from Amazon. My birds refused to eat the Amazon seed, and I ended up throwing it away. Even though it resembled what I had been using, the discerning birds said no thankyou.

Lotsa Birds!

My boxes of seed and suet from Happy Birdwatchers has made my first winter in New York State a lot more bearable! Moving from SoCal was very difficult as I loved California. But my bird friends are making life happier. I’ve spotted my very first Yellow Bellied Sapsucker! The first day I spotted him, he was clinging to the suet cage for a LONG TIME! Then it looked like he got hiccups! I swear, his tummy was full and he stayed right there for at least 40 minutes and has been back for more everyday. Thanks Susan, Since I broke my leg on moving day, it was super receiving my order delivered to my front door instead of trekking through stores and dragging stuff home while on crutches!

Birds of a feather, say no to plastic

Ok, that might not be how the saying goes. The truth is we care about birds, people, and the planet and therefore use only paper product bags, recyclable boxes, and fully compostable transparent pouches.
