9. DIY Fruit Feeder
Fruit feeders attract unique species such as orioles, robins, and cedar waxwings. This simple feeder uses fresh or dried fruit instead of seeds.
Materials Needed:
- Mesh bag, old pantyhose, or small basket
- Twine or string
- Slices of apple, orange, or berries
Instructions:
- Place fruit slices or berries inside the mesh bag or basket.
- Hang from a tree branch using twine.
- Refill with fresh fruit every few days to prevent spoilage.
Fruit feeders add variety to your backyard feeding stations and attract different bird species compared to seed-only feeders.
