If you're looking to attract the widest variety of Michigan songbirds, the Birds Choice Red Hanging Tray (BNPBCHTRD) is your best bet. This platform-style feeder is the "open floor plan" of the bird world, allowing everything from Northern Cardinals to Blue Jays to land and feed comfortably.

The bold, bright red finish isn't just a style statement—it’s a beacon. In the middle of a gray Michigan winter, this feeder stands out, helping hungry birds find a meal even when the ground is covered in a foot of snow. Made from recycled poly-lumber, it won't rot, peel, or crack, no matter what the "Mitten" throws at it.

Why You’ll Love It

• The "All-Feeder": Whether you're serving black-oil sunflower seeds, peanuts, or fruit slices, this tray handles it all.

• Patented Drainage: Features a removable stainless steel mesh screen. This is a lifesaver during a rainy Michigan spring, as it allows water to drain instantly, keeping your seed dry and preventing mold.

• Eco-Friendly & Rugged: Crafted from recycled milk jugs. It’s heavy enough to stay stable in the wind and tough enough to last a lifetime.

• Effortless Cleaning: When the tray gets messy, just pop the screen out, give it a quick spray with the hose, and you're back in business.

Pro Tips for the Michigan Birder

• Cardinal Magnet: Red is a high-visibility color for Northern Cardinals. If you want more "Red Birds" in your yard, fill this BNPBCHTRD with black-oil sunflower seeds and hang it near a cedar or pine tree.

• Winter Fruit Bar: During the winter, try putting out some chopped apples or raisins in this tray. It’s a great way to help overwintering Robins or Cedar Waxwings get the sugar they need.

• The Squirrel Diversion: If you have a lot of squirrels, try filling this tray with Safflower seed. The birds love it, but most squirrels find it bitter and will leave your red tray alone.

In Michigan, seeing that flash of royal blue in early spring is a sign that warmer days are coming. The Birds Choice Bluebird Feeder (BNPSNBBF) is specifically designed to cater to our Eastern Bluebirds. Made from high-quality recycled poly-lumber, this feeder is a sturdy, eco-friendly fortress that won't rot, peel, or fade, even after years of exposure to the Great Lakes' unpredictable weather.

The genius of this design is the 1.5-inch entrance holes on each end. These are perfectly sized for Bluebirds but too small for larger, aggressive birds like Starlings or Blue Jays. It gives your bluebirds a safe, private dining room where they can eat in peace.

Why You’ll Love It

• Exclusive Access: The entrance holes act as a natural "bouncer," ensuring your expensive mealworms go to the Bluebirds and not the neighborhood squirrels or Grackles.

• Easy Viewing: Features clear acrylic side panels so you can easily monitor food levels and enjoy a clear view of the birds while they eat.

• Built Michigan-Tough: The tan and blue recycled plastic is heavy-duty and stays looking brand new through blizzards and thunderstorms.

• Simple Cleanup: The clear panels slide out for easy cleaning, ensuring a sanitary environment for your feathered friends.

Pro Tips for the Michigan Birder

• The Bluebird "Dinner Bell": Bluebirds love mealworms! To get them started with the BNPSNBBF, place a few mealworms on the outside "porch" of the feeder. Once they find the source, they'll learn to hop inside.

• Spring Arrival: Get this feeder out by late March. Michigan Bluebirds are early arrivals and will be scouting for reliable food sources as they claim their nesting territories.

• Mounting Advice: Bluebirds prefer open spaces. Mount this on a pole about 5 feet off the ground in a clear area of your yard so they can scan for predators while they feed.

Specifications

• SKU: BNPSNBBF

• UPC: 789453650184

• Manufacturer Model: SNBBF

• Material: Recycled Poly-Lumber (Tan & Blue)

If you prefer your backyard gear to blend in with the cedars and pines of Northern Michigan, the Birds Choice Sage Green Suet Feeder (BNPBCSSSG) is your best bet. The earthy, muted green tone provides a natural look that feels right at home in any lakeside garden or wooded lot.

Just like its more colorful siblings, this feeder is a powerhouse of durability. Constructed from recycled plastic milk jugs, it is essentially immune to the Michigan elements. Whether it’s buried in lake-effect snow or baked in a humid July sun, this feeder won't warp, rot, or fade. It’s the "Up North" standard for quality bird feeding.

Why You’ll Love It

• Natural Aesthetic: The Sage Green finish is subtle and professional, looking great in both manicured gardens and wilder backyards.

• Maintenance-Free: No painting or staining required. The color is solid all the way through the recycled plastic.

• Rugged Construction: Assembled with stainless steel screws that won't rust, ensuring this feeder stays in the family for years.

• Easy-Fill Design: The lift-top lid makes it simple to swap out suet cakes even when the Michigan wind is trying to freeze your fingers.

Pro Tips for the Michigan Birder

• The "Stealth" Advantage: Because Sage Green is a more natural color, shy birds like the Brown Creeper or the Red-breasted Nuthatch may feel more comfortable visiting this feeder sooner than a bright-colored one.

• Placement is Key: Hang this BNPBCSSSG near an evergreen tree. The green-on-green look provides excellent cover for small birds like Chickadees to hide from hawks while they grab a quick snack.

• Year-Round Energy: In Michigan, we use suet all year. Switch to a "No-Melt" suet blend during our hot August stretches to keep the birds fed without the mess.

Specifications

• SKU: BNPBCSSSG

• UPC: 789453009869

• Manufacturer Model: BCSSSG

For the Michigan homeowner who wants a sleek, sophisticated look without sacrificing durability, the Birds Choice Bristol Black Suet Feeder (BNPBCSSBB) is the perfect fit. While the birds don't mind the color, this "Bristol Black" finish looks stunning against a snowy Michigan backdrop or a modern farmhouse exterior.

Crafted from recycled poly-lumber made from diverted landfill plastic, this feeder is built for the long haul. It won’t rot like wood, it won’t rust like cheap metal, and it’s heavy enough to stay steady when those 40 mph gusts come whipping off the lake.

Why You’ll Love It

• Modern Aesthetic: The Bristol Black color offers a clean, neutral look that complements any backyard décor.

• Michigan-Proof Durability: Guaranteed never to crack, split, or fade. It’s built to handle the "Mitten's" wildest temperature swings.

• Eco-Friendly Choice: Feel good knowing your feeder is made from recycled milk jugs, keeping our Michigan waterways cleaner.

• Sanitary Design: Non-porous material makes it incredibly easy to scrub and disinfect, keeping your local chickadees and titmice healthy.

Pro Tips for the Michigan Birder

• Heat Absorption: Because it's black, this feeder will absorb a bit more sunlight. In the dead of a Michigan winter, this can actually help keep the suet just soft enough for small birds to peck at easily.

• The Woodpecker Magnet: To attract the big Pileated or Hairy Woodpeckers, hang this on a sturdy 4x4 post or a thick oak limb. They prefer a stable platform when they're working on a suet cake.

• Winter Strategy: During a "Polar Vortex," suet is the most efficient way for birds to maintain their body fat. Keep this BNPBCSSBB stocked with high-energy suet to ensure your backyard flock survives the night.

Specifications

• UPC: 789453010223

If the gray Michigan winters are getting you down, this Birds Choice Yellow Suet Feeder is the perfect "sunshine in a box" for your backyard. This vibrant yellow isn't just a cheerful accent; it's a high-visibility beacon that helps local birds spot your feeding station from across the neighborhood.

Like its Navy Peony and Red cousins, this feeder is made from recycled poly-lumber—the ultimate "Michigan-proof" material. It won't absorb moisture, it won't harbor bacteria, and it's guaranteed never to crack, split, or fade, no matter how much lake-effect snow or summer humidity we get.

Why You’ll Love It

• Sun-Bright Color: Adds a pop of "summer vibes" to your yard year-round, even during a bleak January.

• Eco-Friendly Build: Made from recycled milk jugs, helping keep plastic out of our beautiful Michigan parks and waterways.

• Easy-Lift Lid: Makes refilling a breeze, even when you're wearing thick winter gloves.

• Heavy-Duty Grid: Features a vinyl-coated wire screen that’s easy on bird feet but tough enough to handle hungry woodpeckers.

Pro Tips for the Michigan Birder

• Attract the "Goldies": While Goldfinches usually prefer thistle, they are naturally attracted to the color yellow. Hanging this feeder nearby might just encourage them to stick around and investigate your other stations!

• Spring Migration Beacon: During the spring migration, bright colors like yellow help traveling birds identify food sources quickly as they fly back north through the Mitten.

• Sanitation Hack: Because it's non-porous recycled plastic, you can soak this whole feeder in a mild bleach solution once a month to keep your backyard flock healthy and disease-free.

If the Navy Peony is for the subtle backyard, this Birds Choice Red Suet Feeder is for the Michigander who wants their bird station to really stand out! That vibrant red isn't just for show—it’s a natural beacon for birds like the Northern Cardinal and various Woodpeckers who are instinctively drawn to bright colors.

Just like its blue cousin, this feeder is made right here in the USA from recycled plastic milk jugs. It’s dense, heavy, and won't fade under the summer sun or crack when the wind-chill hits -20°F in January. It’s a single-cake feeder that’s "tough as a Yooper" and built to last a lifetime.

Why You’ll Love It

• Vibrant Cardinal Red: Looks incredible against a fresh Michigan snowfall and helps birds spot your station from a distance.

• Maintenance-Free: Unlike wood feeders that rot, mold, or need staining, this recycled poly-lumber just needs a quick rinse to look brand new.

• Eco-Conscious: You’re helping keep plastic out of our Great Lakes by choosing a product made from diverted landfill waste.

• Secure Feeding: The vinyl-coated wire grid is perfectly spaced for small clinging birds like Chickadees, but sturdy enough for a heavy Pileated Woodpecker.

Pro Tips for the Michigan Birder

• The "Red" Strategy: Red is a high-visibility color. If you’re starting a brand new bird feeding station, hanging this red feeder first will help local "scouts" find your yard much faster.

• Ice Storm Hack: During those freezing rain storms we get in March, check the lift-top lid. If it freezes shut, a quick tap with a wooden spoon will pop it right open without damaging the recycled plastic.

• High-Energy Mix: Pair this with a "Hot Pepper" suet cake. It keeps the squirrels from chewing on your nice red feeder while giving the birds the fat they need for nesting season.

If you want to see a wide variety of birds—from the vibrant Northern Cardinal to the scrappy Black-capped Chickadee—this Hanging Tray Feeder is the "all-you-can-eat buffet" of the backyard. The open-platform design allows birds of all sizes to land comfortably, and the Navy Peony color provides a beautiful, deep blue accent to your Michigan landscape.

Like the suet feeder, this is made from heavy-duty recycled poly-lumber. It won’t absorb moisture, it won’t harbor bacteria like old wood feeders, and it certainly won't rot during a wet Michigan autumn.

Why You’ll Love It

• Superior Drainage: Features a patented expanded mesh stainless steel screen bottom. This is huge for us in the Great Lakes; it lets rainwater and melting snow drain right through so your expensive seed stays dry and mold-free.

• Tougher Than a Yooper: Assembled with stainless steel fasteners and suspended by a durable polyester rope. It’s built to hang through wind, sleet, and everything in between.

• Easy-Peasy Cleanup: When it gets a bit messy, just spray it down with a hose. The screen is removable, making it the easiest feeder in your yard to keep sanitary.

Pro Tips for the Michigan Birder

• The "Blue Jay" Defense: If you find the larger Blue Jays or Grackles are clearing this tray out in ten minutes, try filling it specifically with Safflower seed. Most songbirds love it, but squirrels and "bully birds" usually leave it alone.

• Winter Mealworms: During our cold snaps, Michigan Bluebirds often stick around. Put a handful of dried mealworms in this tray—it’s the best way to help them survive the freeze.

• Ground Control: This feeder is a "platform," which attracts ground-feeders like Juncos and Mourning Doves. If you have a lot of them, consider hanging this a bit lower to the ground (but still high enough to avoid the neighborhood cats!).

Constructed from recycled poly-lumber (think milk jugs diverted from landfills), it’s guaranteed to never crack, split, or fade—even if we get a classic "Pure Michigan" ice storm. It’s a single-cake capacity feeder designed for ease: just lift the top and slide in your favorite suet.

Why You’ll Love It

• Built to Last: Recycled plastic is impervious to insects and rot. It’s the "buy it once, keep it forever" kind of gear.

• Easy Cleaning: Features removable, vinyl-coated wire screens so you can scrub off the gunk without a hassle.
• Heavy-Duty Hardware: Assembled with stainless steel screws that won't rust out after a rainy April.

• Michigan-Ready: The Navy Peony color stays vibrant year-round and provides a sturdy grip for clinging birds like Chickadees and Titmice.

Pro Tips for the Michigan Birder

• Deter the Deer & Raccoons: We know our local "critters" love suet as much as the birds do. Hang this feeder at least 5 feet off the ground and away from low-hanging branches to keep it out of reach for hungry paws.

• The Woodpecker Magnet: To attract our big Downy and Hairy Woodpeckers, use a high-energy suet cake with peanuts or mealworms.

• Winter Hack: In the dead of January, suet is a literal lifesaver for birds. This recycled material won't freeze your fingers when you're swapping out cakes in the cold!

Hummingbirds are a favorite sight in Michigan backyards every spring and summer. Keeping nectar fresh and protected can make a big difference in attracting these tiny, energetic birds. The HummZinger 12" Red Dome is designed to shield your hummingbird feeder from sun and rain so your nectar stays fresher longer.

This 12-inch red weather dome sits above your feeder and acts as a protective barrier. The tinted red plastic helps reduce direct sunlight exposure, which slows nectar evaporation and helps keep nectar cooler on warm summer days. When sudden rain showers pass through, the dome also helps prevent water from entering the feeder and diluting the nectar.

Providing shade above the feeder can also make hummingbirds more comfortable while feeding. Many backyard bird enthusiasts notice that hummingbirds will visit more frequently when feeders are protected from harsh sunlight and rain.

The dome installs easily above compatible hummingbird feeders and can be removed whenever you need to clean or refill your feeder. Built with durable materials for outdoor use, it’s a practical upgrade for anyone who enjoys feeding hummingbirds throughout the Michigan summer season.

Hummingbirds are one of the most exciting visitors to Michigan backyards during the warmer months. Keeping nectar fresh and protected from weather can help attract these tiny, energetic birds more consistently. The HummZinger 12" Red Dome is designed to shield your hummingbird feeder from sun, rain, and changing outdoor conditions while creating a more comfortable feeding area for hummingbirds.

This 12-inch diameter dome sits above your feeder and acts as a protective barrier against rain and even light snow. By preventing moisture from entering the feeder, it helps keep nectar from becoming diluted during unexpected weather—something many Michigan bird lovers experience throughout the season.

The bright red dome does more than protect the feeder. Hummingbirds are naturally attracted to the color red, so the dome can help draw hummingbirds from a distance and guide them toward your feeder.

The tinted dome also helps reduce direct sunlight on the feeder, which slows nectar evaporation and helps nectar stay fresh longer during warm summer days. The dome can be easily removed whenever you need to refill or clean your feeder, making regular maintenance simple and convenient.

Whether you're watching hummingbirds hover around your feeder on a sunny Michigan afternoon or during a passing rain shower, the HummZinger Dome helps create a more reliable and bird-friendly feeding setup.

Backyard bird feeding in Michigan can sometimes leave a trail of seed shells and debris underneath your feeder. The Auto Tray Seed Catcher is designed to help solve that problem while making your feeder more comfortable for birds to use.

Built as the perfect companion for Quick-Clean tube feeders with a 2¾-inch diameter, this tray attaches directly to the base of the feeder and catches seeds before they fall to the ground. By collecting loose seed and shells, it helps keep your backyard feeding area cleaner and reduces wasted seed.

The tray also provides an additional landing space that many birds appreciate. Species common in Michigan backyards—like cardinals, chickadees, finches, and nuthatches—often prefer a stable perch while feeding. With a tray in place, birds can comfortably sit and eat rather than cling to feeder ports.

Designed with convenience in mind, the finger hoods allow you to easily access and remove the feeder base when it's time for cleaning. The tray simply snaps onto the Quick-Clean feeder base, requiring no tools or hardware.

Made from durable polycarbonate, the Auto Tray is built to handle changing weather conditions—from warm summer birdwatching days to snowy Michigan winters. It’s a practical upgrade that helps keep your feeding station tidy while giving birds a better place to feed.

Patented, Ingenious Design

Backyard Birds Pro-Tips:
