My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

How long until birds find my new suet feeders?

3 years ago

I just installed 3 suet feeders hanging from a PVC T-shaped stand I built. So far, it's been 2 days and I haven't seen any birds feeding there yet. How long does it usually take for birds to discover feeders?

    Woo-hoo, I got a couple of mourning doves, a female cardinal, some juncos and a pair of house sparrows today.
