will not be dissuaded from migrating to warmer temperatures because there’s a free buffet.
That’s not to say there aren’t real reasons to take down your birder feeders sometimes. If you’re struggling financially and buying seed has become difficult, you could take down your feeder and go find birds yourself. Another reason is if there is an outbreak of mites or salmonella at your feeders. You should take them down for a few weeks to let the outbreak blow over. A final reason to take down a feeder is if you’re in bear territory and you don’t have a bear-proof feeder.
So, feeding birds throughout the year is a great hobby that doesn’t have to be seasonal if you don’t want it to be.
There’s no compelling reason for you to take down your feeders during certain times of the year.
