We have a suet feeder on the outside window of Carl and Jean’s office and it’s fun to watch the woodpeckers. If you want to learn how to attract woodpeckers, read the article “Feed suet to attract woodpeckers” in AnnArbor.com.
Although it can be fed year-round, winter is a great time of the year to feed suet to wild birds, according to the article.
The high fat content gives birds the boost in calories they need to survive the short daylight hours and long, cold nights. Suet is wonderful for attracting tree-loving birds like woodpeckers, nuthatches, brown creepers, and chickadees.
