Bird feeder camera - pigeons and magpie issyes (1 Viewer)

[Oliveotis]

My brother was bought a Bluetooth bird feeder for his birthday and absolutely loves it!!
Only problem is Pigeons and Magpies are dominating it, scaring off the smaller birds.
Can anyone recommend any tips as to how he can deter the larger birds and is there a bracket or front people can recommend which can be added to allow the smaller birds access whilst ensuring the camera and focus is not impacted?
Any guidance or advice would be great thank you

Welcome to Birdforum.

We tend to use squirrel proof feeders which larger birds such as wood pigeons and magpies are too big to use. We also have a weighted feeder which closes the feeding ports if a heavy bird lands on it.
