Fruit Feeders

Fruit Eating Birds

Adding fruit feeders to your backyard can attract many fruit eating birds that might not otherwise come to feeders. Fruit can be offered in hanging feeders, wire feeders designed for holding pieces of fruit or fruit suet, or nectar feeders for fruit eating birds.

Some of the birds that like to eat orange halves placed in a holder are:

Eastern birds

  • Red-bellied Woodpeckers
  • Northern Mockingbirds
  • Brown Thrashers
  • Orchard Orioles
  • Baltimore Orioles
  • Scarlet Tanagers
  • Gray Catbirds
  • Rose-breasted Grosbeaks

Western birds

  • Hooded orioles
  • Bullock’s orioles
  • Gray Catbirds
  • Western Tanagers

Grapes can be put on a cage or on a platform fruit feeder. Grapes are particularly attractive to:

Eastern birds

  • Northern Mockingbirds
  • Eastern Bluebirds
  • Cedar Waxwings
  • Gray Catbirds
  • Scarlet Tanagers
  • Rose-breasted Grosbeaks
  • House Finches
  • Robins
  • Towhees

Western birds

  • Acorn Woodpeckers
  • Western Bluebirds
  • Western Tanagers
  • Black-headed Grosbeaks
  • House Finches
  • Towhees
  • Robins

Raisins can be placed in a platform feeder and are particularly attractive to:

Eastern birds

  • Northern Mockingbirds
  • Gray Catbirds
  • Eastern Bluebirds
  • Cedar Waxwings

Western birds

  • Western Bluebirds
  • Cedar Waxwings
  • Northern Mockingbirds


Success of feeding birds such as orioles seems to come when they are already present in the area. Mockingbirds seem to be very territorial. If you start feeding the mockingbirds, place the feeder away from existing feeders. It may take years to attract orioles if a customer is just starting to plant their yard with fruit trees and bushes. It is always fun to see what may be attracted to yards with fruit feeders. It is always worth the effort, especially if you are rewarded by seeing these birds up close.

Planting fruit producing trees and shrubs will attract a wider variety of birds and assist them in surviving hard winters.  The Robins will be attracted to cherries and crabapples.  Bluebirds will also be attracted by fruits!

The Registry of Nature Habitats - Mission Statement

The Registry of Nature Habitats is dedicated to the preservation of land that, over time, has been a site and home for complex ecosystems. The Registry advocates preservation of these lands and its inhabitants, environmental education for community individuals and groups, and nurturing of these lands through restoration in order to conserve its natural resources for future generations.

Preserve

The Registry of Nature Habitats manages critical habitat, consisting of wetland, lowland, upland, forest and stream habitat, providing a home to wildlife species and plant species. As part of the mission to preserve these lands and its inhabitants, the Registry will continue to contract with owners of ecologically sensitive land as it becomes available.

Educate

The Registry of Nature Habitats is a "teaching ground," able to provide hands-on, interpretive learning experiences in areas such as ecology, botany, wildlife science, and geology, as well as the arts and humanities. The educational mission of The Registry of Nature Habitats is to teach an understanding and appreciaton of the environment, the invaluable lesson of land stewardship of our natural resources, and to expand the general knowledge of this habitat through scientific research. This will be accomplished through a year-round experiential, interactive approach, along with onsite and outreach activities including providing educational material both on this website, on media and through educational seminars. An on-site facility is in the design phase, which will house classrooms and an administrative space.

Nurture

Through several restoration projects, including the rebuilding of stream corridors, reintroducing native flora, and permitting only low-impact activities, the Registry is nurturing much land back to its natural state, undoing the damage of hundreds of years. The Registry of Nature Habitats restoration plan, developed with public and private partnerships and with local community support, will increase the land's value, enhance wildlife habitat, improve water quality, and preserve the integrity of the land's bio-diversity.

Renewable Energy

Promote the use of renewable and efficient energy technologies through education, training, workforce development, research, and project facilitation. The Registry supports clean energy development and energy conservation as the means to protect the environment, enhance public health, and save our nature habitats.

Conservation

We seek to educate people and provide innovative solutions that will help build a clean, more efficient world, by reducing energy consumption in a prudent way that does not threaten the natural balance that supports all life.
