Bird Feeder

A friend of mine bought two bird feeders from Nature Forever in February 2015. They were simple to setup and we hung them at "strategic" locations in the NBRC campus. We filled it with broken uncooked rice first, and then also with bajra seeds. The food was popular with the birds (from earlier experiences), but the birds struggled to land at the feeder and use the openings to access the food. This plan didn't seem to take off with the birds unfortunately, but I am considering giving it another go.
