Feeder Birds
Birds at Feeders
This list includes birds drawn to bird feeders. Rather than actually feed at the feeders, many feeder birds will feed on the ground underneath feeders picking up scraps. These include doves, sparrows, juncos, thrashers, towhees, and some blackbirds.
No list of feeder birds will ever be perfectly definitive. The type of feeder and the type of food will help determine the diversity of the species at feeder stations, but even the perfect feeding station will never draw all the expected birds.
The list does not include birds coming to water features like birdbaths.
