No. 03 · Getting started

A first station, four steps.

Read the placement guide
01

Pick the spot

Somewhere you can see from a chair, near shrubs or a tree, with a clear view around it.

02

Hang one feeder

One feeder is enough to learn who visits. Fill it part way so seed stays fresh.

03

Add shallow water

A bath one to two inches deep, refreshed every day or two, set in the open.

04

Keep it clean

Wash feeders every two weeks and scrub the bath weekly. That is most of the work.

Watch first, then add one thing at a time.

A good yard grows slowly. Start with a feeder and water, see who comes, and build from there.

No. 05 · Field notes

Three ways to look closer.

Image to make: Close crop: a clear window feeder on a sunlit pane, seed tray half full, sage curtains blurred inside, cream and olive tones, no text.
Window feeders

A feeder on the glass

Suction cups hold a clear feeder on a clean window. No pole, no tree, no yard needed. A good first feeder for apartments and kitchens.

Image to make: A shallow stone-gray bird bath on a low pedestal in morning shade, ripples on the water, ferns and moss around the base, muted greens.
Bird baths

Water is half of it

Birds drink and bathe in shallow water. A hanging, deck or ground bath, kept fresh every day or two, gives a yard a second reason for a visit.

Image to make: A plain wooden nest box mounted on a fence post at the edge of a garden, early spring buds, overcast soft light, warm wood against sage.
Bird houses

Up before spring

Nest boxes go up in late winter or early spring, before nesting begins. Mount one out of the afternoon sun and clean it out each fall.

No. 06 · The season

Spring is the busy season.

Feeders and baths are used all year, but spring is when yards fill up. Delivery takes 8 to 16 days, so set up a little ahead.

No. 08 · Questions

Before you set up.

More in the full FAQ.

What should a beginner buy first?
Start with one seed feeder and one shallow bath. That pair covers food and water, is easy to keep clean, and shows you who visits before you add more. If you have no yard, a window feeder is the simplest start.
Do you sell bird seed?
No, we do not sell seed. It cannot ship from overseas, so it is always bought locally. Garden centers, hardware stores and many grocery stores carry it in small bags, which is the right way to start.
Where should I hang a feeder?
Hang it where you can see it, near cover but not inside it. A common guideline is within three feet of a window or more than thirty feet away. Our placement guide walks through height, shade and squirrels.
How long does delivery take?
Orders arrive in 8 to 16 days. Everything ships from partner warehouses overseas, which is why it takes longer than a local store. Shipping is free on US orders over $79.
What is your return policy?
You can return unused items within 30 days of delivery. Email us first with your order number and we will reply with the return steps. Keep the original packaging if you can, it makes the return simpler.
