i want a bird feeding table that I can attach to a windowsill to sit on the outside. all I can find is window feeders that have suction cups but if it slips, the table will fall three storeys. can't find what I am after anywhere. like a wee platform for the birds - ThreadSky

If you find one please share it, we're in a upstairs flat, we have a pointless railing on one of our windows that we managed to find a metal screw on feeder to, but there are windows without that and we can't use the suction ones either in case they fall and destroy a neighbours car.

https://www.tiktok.com/@home.on.bearcreek/video/7231303844020440363 you have to build it, but it's a simple build.

Not directly on the window but how cute would this be?

this is the kind of delightful crap I am talking about

Lucky you, these are easily sold online, only targeted for squirrels rather than birds… the possibilities are endless though

couldn’t you get some planters and mount your own platform to it? Or repurpose the planters?

Could use silicone sealant to attach the feeder directly instead of the suction cups... Dunno about removal though.

Tie it up with some string so it doesn't fall the whole way. I don't know what your windows are like, but i want to have bird friends

flexipro.bsky.social•46 days ago

What way does the window open? Casement, louvered, sliding up, sliding sideways?

pyrionflax.bsky.social•46 days ago

Just slides up

Wow, there are so many bad DIYs and almost every one you can buy uses suction cups. I did find this, which is a simple build. It can fit your window & should not fall out. https://www.tiktok.com/@home.on.bearcreek/video/7231303844020440363 (sorry it's TikTok, but I could see it without the app, so I suspect you will be able to as well)

Nice. I'd recommend you buy or build a platform that you can screw down on the inside. (Suggestions to follow). 👍🏼

Should check out “in window” bird feeders. It’s not an exact match but it should give you that “bird in the window to look at” vibe.

If it doesn't exist then its time to learn woodworking clearly - could be a fun 2025 sidequest?
