Home : Bird Feeding : About Bird Feeders -- Globe or Satellite Dome Feeders

Globe Feeders.

by BWD editor Bill Thompson, III

If you want to cater only to small birds like chickadees, titmice, nuthatches, goldfinches, and siskins, pick a globe feeder, sometimes called a satellite feeder. These look like flying saucers or satellites and they are suspended from a wire so they spin when a bird lands on them.

If you're tired of watching large birds hog all the food, try a satellite feeder. Birds must approach them from the bottom and cling vertically or even upside down to feed. Some satellite feeders have a domed baffle on top to keep squirrels out, too. In areas where house finches dominate the food, globe/satellite feeders make it possible for smaller birds to eat.
