What could I be doing wrong
my feeder is pretty slow this year, too. It is pretty faded, so I think I will repaint the red parts this weekend to see if business picks up a little.

When I was a kid, my mom would always have three feeders outside the bay windows in our kitchen. Every year we would have dozens of birds outside at the same time. You could stand by the feeders and they would just hover all around you without a care in the world. I thought that was the coolest thing, so I started helping her with the feeders every year. Unfortunately, my mom got diagnosed with cancer when I was twelve and it wasn't good from the beginning. I took care of the feeders for her so she could sit at the table and watch them. I lost her when I was 14 and abandoned the feeders because it reminded me of her too much and at that age I couldn't handle it.
I had completely blocked that memory out until I saw this thread a couple months ago. I decided to go get a feeder and put it up in mid March. Didn't see a single bird and not a drop was gone out of it until a couple weeks ago. Now at any given time there's three or four at a time fighting over it and I have to refill every three days. Brings back a lot of good memories every time I look out there.
Sorry for the book.
Just thought I'd share and say thanks to the OB.
