I live in Vermont and I have just put up a bird feeder at my new apartment. I live in a rural area so there are lots of trees etc. for the birds to live in.

usually only takes a day or 2 make sure you feeder is near some small trees or bushes for cover. birds like to be able to hide a bit if they can.

It seems like birds can smell food (maybe they can). I have a feeder hung from a tree, a freestanding feeder on a pole, a Finch feeder bag and two hummingbird feeders. As soon as they are refilled in the spring, I have birds all over the place.

my dad always told me to hang new bird feeders when its cold outside (and if there is snow on the ground its even better)... so, i am betting that they will find them right after you have a cold wave
