Duncraft Classic Bluebird Feeder

Duncraft Classic Bluebird Feeder — Attract Eastern Bluebirds

Bluebirds flock to this bestselling, bird-friendly feeder. The Duncraft Classic Bluebird Feeder gives bluebirds the sheltered feeding space they prefer while letting you watch them feed through clearview sides. This feeder features open fly-through entrances that make feeding easy for adult bluebirds and young birds learning to land. Because of this open design, larger birds like starlings may also enter. Two oval fly-through openings (1½" × 2⅛") encourage natural approach and allow fledglings easy entry. The clear plastic roof keeps dried mealworms dry, and grooved perches provide secure footing for young birds. Ready to hang with the included cable — durable blue recycled plastic. 8 × 7 × 6 inches.

Why bluebirds (and birders) love it

• The enclosed feeding area gives bluebirds a sense of safety, so they’ll feel comfortable feeding right where you can enjoy watching them.
• The easy fly-through design follows their natural flight pattern — especially inviting to Eastern Bluebirds.
• Open sides and roomy perches make it perfect for fledglings learning to land and feed on their own.
• A weather-protected roof and generous capacity mean fewer refills and more time enjoying your birds.

Choosing the right bluebird feeder for your yard

• If you’re specifically looking for a feeder that limits access by starlings, this model may not be the best fit.
• Bluebirds benefit from feeders with easy entry, especially during nesting season when fledglings are learning to feed. This feeder is intentionally designed with open access to support young birds.
• If starlings are common in your area and exclusion is a priority, we recommend choosing one of our starling-resistant bluebird feeders, which feature smaller or recessed openings.

How to use & placement tips

• Where to hang: Choose an open spot in your yard or near natural perches like fenceposts or tree branches. Bluebirds prefer open sightlines rather than dense shrubs.
• Height: Hang about 4–6 feet above the ground for good visibility and protection from predators.
• Refill & clean: Fill with dried or live mealworms. Clean weekly in warm weather or when heavily used, and monthly during cooler months. Use mild soap and water, rinse well, and dry before refilling.
• Predator safety: Avoid hanging near thick brush or areas where cats or squirrels might jump. Bluebirds feel safest when they can see all around‬.
