Why choose a peanut feeder?
Peanuts belong to the favorite foods for many bird species, including woodpeckers, nuthatches, and tits. Packed with essential fats and proteins, they’re an excellent energy source, especially during colder months when birds need to keep warm. Peanut feeders are specifically designed with fine mesh to prevent birds from taking large pieces, ensuring safe feeding and reducing waste.

Maximize the success of your peanut feeder by following these tips:
- Choose the right location: Place the feeder in a quiet, sheltered spot, ideally near trees or shrubs for cover.
