If you are unable to relocate your feeder to somewhere where deer can’t get to it, try changing out your feeder for something like a Nyjer or Nut Feeder. The seed ports are so small, deer can’t reach the food. Another suggestion, if you live in bear country and see bears hanging around your feeders, it’s a good idea to take them down - nothing will deter a hungry bear. Dr. Bird talks about what to do with your feeders if you are a snowbird and leave for the winter. He also discusses a new study that shows divorce rates among certain birds like the Wandering Albatross are on the rise. EnviroMinute this episode is simply a reminder that when you are doing your holiday shopping this year, try to look for products that are backed by solid warranties. This will keep your gifts out of a landfill for as long as possible. 

‘Z’ is for Zone-tailed Hawk.
