Where is the best place to hang my new bird feeder?
Hang the feeder away from trees, bushes or fences where squirrels may climb or jump to the feeder. If you must hang the feeder on a tree, keep it at least six feet from the trunk or the tree limbs. Add a squirrel baffle over the feeder to prevent squirrels from climbing down the wire from which you hang the feeder. If you decide to use a free standing pole, it should be 5′ high and 10′ from the nearest tree.
