Can you see it easily from a window in your house?
Oh, yes! Originally, it was right outside our dining room bay, but the larger birds made such a mess, raking through it as though sharpening their beaks, that I was forever weeding the
flower beds in that area when the
seed would germinate & grasses would sprout everywhere!
I recently moved it to an area above a huge low-
growing Juniper bush that grows over the side of a hill, where it can be seen better from the front bay, as well as from the dining bay. (Although we don't have as much of a "close up & personal" view of the birds now... but I'm not out there weeding all the time!)
Chenno, if you're going to put one together for yourself, I suggest that you modify it where the perches are, so the eye screws can be eliminated. (The dowel turns just a little each time the birds land & take off, which gradually works the dowel right out of those eye screws.
I've used washers, rubber bands, twisty-ties & finally, dollups of glue-gun glue to prevent the dowels from sliding, so I wouldn't have to go out there every-other day to put them back in!)
If you make those 2 board pieces longer at the sides of the tray (the little board that the eye screws are attached to) & cut out a notch to rest the dowels in, you won't have that problem. (Glue or tack the dowels into the notches with brads or wire nails.)
If anyone would like to have the feeder dimensions & dowel sizes that were used in this construction, I'll be glad to go out & measure everything... just say the word.
