Bird Tables – where to position them

Posted on February 5th, 2009 in Bird Tables and Bird Feeders by Trish

I have read two bits of different advice on where to position a bird table

One person said to put a birdtable near a hedge. If birds are in a hedge they can  dodge sparrowhawks etc.  Do not put a birdtable out in the open as a bird of prey has a clear view and can strike easily.

The second person said – Put yor bird table out in the open.  The garden birds have a clear all round view if you do that.

Which do you think is right?
