Tweets,
Once again starlings have taken over the suet. Despite the fact that I
live in a city apartment the suet gets quite a bit of use when the
starlings are gone like flocks of Bushtits, BC Chickadees and even the
occassional GC and RC kinglets investigate it. My question is, is there
anything that might help deter the starlings so the other species can use
the suet feeder? The suet feeder already is free hanging and chasing them
away just does not work as sooner or later they come right back.

Thanks for any ideas,
