I've always wanted a feeder because we have some really beautiful birds around here. In fact I do have a feeder, and the cats in the area would love it if I did use it. But for the safety of the little birds, I can't put it up. I once did put up a hummingbird feeder, but the birds couldn't figure out what it was. *sigh*
I do have to have my feeders up high because at least one local outside cat stalks them all the time =\ He once jumped up and grabbed a finch right off the perch!! After that I raised everything up out of his reach. It's difficult though, with all of the other wildlife around. I even have to take them in every night so that the bears do not get to them!!
Bears? You must live in a pretty rural area. Where I live, we are lucky to see birds and a stray squirrel once in a while ( although I once saw two egrets walking in the ocean waves and here I only thought they stayed near fresh water). And once in a while I hear an owl.
