This simple bird feeder window hook is fixed to a window by two suction pads, with this allowing for a bird feeder to be hung from it. Ideal for houses with small gardens and balcony windows in apartments, the bird feeder window hook can take a bird feeder weighing up to 1.5kg.

Most types of hanging bird feeders can be used with the window hook, with foods including straight seeds, seed mixes, peanuts and suet. Using more than one bird feeder window hook to allow for different foods to be put out, will help attract a greater mix of species such as Blue tit, Robin and Chaffinch.

To prevent birds from colliding with the window glass, it’s important to have some sort of visual barrier in place - e.g. open vertical blinds on the inside of the window or thin lines drawn with a pen directly on the glass.

This is the second window hook from Vine Farm now. The original one is still going strong from a few years ago so has survived all sorts of conditions. It is sturdy and takes a good weight. Totally recommend this product.

More Information Frequently Asked Questions

Our bird feeder window hook is a simple but effective device which allows hanging bird feeders to be positioned right against windows. This then means that birds can be observed feeding very close up.

The window hook fixes to the glass using two suction pads, which can take a surprising weight of up to 1.5kg. This allows for most types of hanging feeder to be used, such as peanuts, sunflower hearts, seed mixes, suet products or live mealworms. And of course, if more than one bird feeder window hook is used, then more than one type of food can be put out which in turn will attract a greater variety of garden bird species such as Great tit, Coal tit and Siskin.

One important consideration if using this window bird feeder hook, is to take steps to minimise the risk of birds flying into the glass (this also applies to feeders used in a garden but close to windows). The best way to do this is by creating vertical lines, which birds see as a barrier and therefore don’t attempt to fly through.

Vertical blinds are ideal as they can be adjusted to allow for enough space for the birds to be observed, but at the same time create a visual barrier which they won’t attempt to fly through. Other ways of achieving the same effect are to draw thin lines on the glass with a marker pen about 5cm apart (doesn’t matter which side of the glass), or hang lines of string from the top of the glass the same distance apart.

Yes, they will, though it can take them longer to initially do so compared to bird feeders right out in a garden. But once they’ve overcome any initial caution, then most species of garden bird will regularly return to a window feeder.

Any window can be used, and if it’s a ground floor window then position the window bird feeder at roughly head height.

They are to a point and are best suited for homes with very small gardens or for balcony windows in apartment blocks. The only issue with window bird feeders is the risk of birds colliding with the glass and being killed, but the chances of this happening can be greatly reduced if there’s a visual barrier of vertical lines - e.g. a vertical blind behind the window or thin lines drawn directly on the glass with a marker pen. Note that the same rule applies to bird feeders hung in a garden but still relatively close to windows.

This depends on a host of factors so it’s impossible to say how long, though provided there are birds in the area and high-quality food is used in the window feeder, then birds will come to it - and probably within a week or so.

Window feeders for birds are not entirely safe if used without measures taken to prevent birds from flying into the glass. So to make window feeders safe for birds, it’s important that some sort of visual barrier is in place which birds then think they can’t fly through. This is best achieved by vertical lines - not horizontal as a bird might think it can fly between the lines. Options for this include vertical blinds, lines drawn on the glass with a marker pen at about 5 cm distance apart, or hang lines of string from the top of the window frame.

A squirrel could only get into a window bird feeder if the window was relatively small and therefore the squirrel could easily access it from the window frame - either by physically reaching it or jumping.
