The birds will find the feeder.
Do you have trees nearby?
Meg, the water is a great idea,
but standing water (even in a dog dish)
causes all kinds of mosquito problems in
the South (well at least in my Mississippi yard).
Not if you change it everyday...and I know about mosquitos..big time. I put diluted bleach in scrubbed saucers , wash thoroughly and then let them air out a week while using a freshly cleaned one if mildew grows. An old scrub brush helps clean gunk if it grows.
