Birdfy Feeder is pretty cool

[REG1976]

I bought this Birdfy Bamboo AI Feeder for my wife for Christmas and just put it up last weekend. It's pretty cool as it identifies the birds and takes videos, it has also invited a Raccoon and squirrels. Today I put a metal duct around the post to keep them from climbing to the feeder

We’ve had one called Bird Buddy for a few years…. IDs the birds, takes videos, sends to your cell phone. Doggone squirrels keep getting the feed….

Same here with the IDs, try the metal duct pipe if possible

Wish we could put up something like that. Bears around here will find a way to rip that thing to shreds before we have it up for a week.

Get Safflower seed. Birds love it. Squirrels don’t.

Black Bears around here a pretty harmless, but they are aggressive scavengers when nobody’s around to scare them off. Kind of like raccoons with super strength . They rip down our deer fencing at least once a year to get to our fruit trees.

We made the mistake of setting up a bird feeder inside the run we use for the dogs, and they climbed over 2 sets of fences to get to it.

They are quiet to. Dogs usually don’t even notice they’re in the area. Squirrels make more noise trampling through the woods then the bears do.
