You can find a few more tips for deterring large flocks of birds on this page of the FeederWatch website.

I too have many RW Blackbirds, Brown-headed Cowbirds, and 6-8 Grackles and I am going thru a lot of expensive bird food.

I put out food in early morning, one time a day.

 

The only thing I can think to do is to stop feeding the birds altogether for a while, so that the hoards go somewhere else and then start feeding the “dainty” birds again.

Hi,

 

A neighbor of mine is bothered that she gets a lot of grackles and starlings at her feeders, and that they hog all the food she puts out. Any suggestions?
