Upside down suet feeders help to keep certain birds, such as starlings and grackles, away from the suet to allow other birds the chance to eat. Woodpeckers, chickadees, and other birds will happily eat upside down, but starlings and grackles have a more difficult time doing so. While it won’t keep away all pesky birds, hanging your suet upside-down does help to reduce their numbers.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eu003cimg src=u0022https://gardentherapy.ca/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Chickadee-on-my-hand-cropped-Large.JPGu0022 alt=u0022Hand feeding the chickadeesu0022/u003e
