Songbird Essentials SE7021 Hummer Helper Cage and Nesting

The Songbird Essentials Hummer Helper Cage with Nesting Material is designed to attract hummingbirds to your yard and provide them with the necessary materials for nest construction. This product offers several key features that make it an excellent choice for hummingbird enthusiasts.

Firstly, the large open grid frame of the cage exposes a substantial surface area of the nesting material, making it easily accessible for hummingbirds to grab bits and pieces to take back to their chosen nesting site. This grid also helps the material dry quickly after rainfall, ensuring that the nesting material remains in good condition.

Moreover, the Hummer Helper Cage with Nesting Material attracts a variety of other nesting birds, including goldfinches and titmice, who can also utilize the provided nesting material. This versatility makes the product an excellent addition to any backyard that aims to support a diverse array of avian species.

The Hummer Helper Cage features a red color, which is known to be attractive to hummingbirds. The cage is also easy to hang, allowing for convenient placement in the desired location. Additionally, refill material is available, ensuring that you can easily replenish the nesting material as needed.

One of the key benefits of the Hummer Helper Cage is its ability to increase the chances of hummingbirds nesting in your backyard. Offering ready-to-use nesting material, in conjunction with providing nectar sources, can significantly enhance the likelihood that hummingbirds will choose to call your yard home. This, in turn, leads to more fledglings at your feeders and more opportunities to observe these captivating birds.

Hummingbirds are known for their "site fidelity," meaning they often return to the same nesting sites year after year. By providing the necessary resources to support their broods, you can potentially see an increase in the number of hummingbirds visiting your yard each season.

To further support hummingbirds, it is recommended to plant nectar-rich plants native to your region. This not only provides a reliable food source but also contributes to the overall habitat that these birds require.

In addition to the Hummer Helper Cage, there are several other tips to consider when attracting hummingbirds to your yard. Ensure that you have multiple feeders hanging before the hummingbirds arrive in your area, and strategically place them near trees or shrubs to offer protection from predators. Keep the nectar feeders clean and the nectar fresh, especially during hot weather. Consider adding a water mister or dripper near the feeders, as hummingbirds are attracted to the sound of moving water and will use it to keep themselves clean.

By incorporating the Songbird Essentials Hummer Helper Cage with Nesting Material into your backyard and following these additional tips, you can create an inviting and supportive environment for hummingbirds, allowing you to observe these captivating creatures up close and enjoy their presence in your outdoor space.
