To deter hawks from bird feeders, you can create a safer environment for smaller birds by placing feeders in sheltered areas, such as near dense shrubs or trees, where birds can quickly escape from predators. Using feeders with protective roofs or designs that limit access can also help. Additionally, hanging shiny objects or using decoys of larger birds can create a sense of danger for hawks, encouraging them to stay away. Regularly changing the location of feeders can further reduce the risk of hawk predation.

What a bird feeder must have?

There are different types of bird feeders. Some are fly through, which means it is open and the birds fly into it and eat. Then there are perch type bird feeders where the birds sit on perches and eat. There are also weight sensitive bird feeders where you can set the weight you want.
