Migratory birds are often provided food with platform feeders. These bird feeding materials have open designs, thus making them ideal for birds who are always keeping an open eye out for possible predators. When they see one, they can simply fly away and leave the feeder. Platform feeders can also accommodate varied types of birds and because of the open design, space is never a problem. The same thing can also be said of the ground feeders.
Providing a suet bird feeder is one way to attract interesting types of birds, such as Northern Flickers, as well as Pileated, Red Bellied, Hairy and Downy Woodpeckers. Suet feeders are cages made from wires and you just simply place suet cakes in them and wait for birds to perch. With bird feeding materials, you really have a lot of choices. Just make sure you provide the right one for the birding sights you want to see.
