I noticed the picture shows the birdhouse is on a pole. Can this birdhouse be hung on a tree trunk or from a branch?

I actually hung it on a tree and you could hang it on a branch as well but it'd have to be a bigger branch or the house will sway too much in wind.

It comes with two long screws. We just attached ours to a tree yesterday! It's a beautiful house. You won't be disappointed!

It can't be hung unless you rig up a way to hang it. There is a place in back to anchor it on a pole or tree. I made a platform to screw it on top of a pole.

I believe this birdhouse is better on a pole, not a branch, because of it's weight. Plus, if it's on a branch or tree, it would be easier for critters to access it, which wouldn't be good.

You can, if you follow the directions of how high up to hang it. Attach it to the tree, don't hang it on a branch.

It is not meant to be hung. I did however wire it to a tomato cage and placed it by my garden. The censor that operates it, really is very good. Without the movement of the head, birds especially robins, are not afraid of it. I was very disappointed with the thing as a whole. I don't recommend buying it.

The connections between the pole segments are kind of loose/wobbly. I probably wouldn't trust this pole for a bird house that heavy.

You can screw the flange shown to the bottom of the bird house. The flange then fits tightly onto the pole. That is how I mounted my bird house. I only used 3 of the 4 pole sections because I drilled a hole in an old stump rather than put a hole in the ground. The pole is a nice heavy weight I am pleased with it and would definitely buy it again.

I put a bird house on our poll. Would have love to put it in the front yard but anyone could have could have took it just pull the poll out but it looks great in the back yard. I will be getting a other one for my Sister in Law.

Ours appears to be the same as the one pictured. It came with brackets to mount in various configurations, ours is hanging from a "shepherd's staff" pole by an S hook but could be mounted by brackets. It holds about 10 pounds of bird seed.

We use an open feeder, looks like a swing. The birds love it. We have song birds, blue birds and sparrows. We hang it from a tree branch, they like this as it gives them cover.

Dear Olga, it would help if you would specify the question. You can always attach anything to something, somehow. Otherwise, I don't see a difference between a branch of a tree and a support beam of a house, as long as there is no stuff on it. I could easily attach mine to a tree branch w/o extra hooks or slings etc. You throw it over, pull the whole thing through its own end, thats it.

We did not hang it on a tree, but rather on two hooks. Each rope end is a loop at the top, and the bottom ends are not cut so the rope forms a u-shape at the bottom. We used it as a rope ladder up into a playhouse that sits about 5 feet off the ground. We had to secure the bottom of the ladder to the tree because we haven't had time to anchor using concrete/hooks. Otherwise, it works fine. Will likely last longer indoors as we are seeing tiny cracks in the wood dowels now after about 6 months.

Yes, this nice sturdy birdhouse is ready to hang. I have mine on a tree, but it is intended to put on a post. Very solid, good quality.

I have mine on a tree. It is big! I have it attached to a wide thick branch. My kids love it so worth the money!

No there is only a loop on top of the birdhouse. I bought a hook and hung the birdhouse on that.

The swing has thick S-hooks to hang it from rings. I'm sure you could figure out a way to hang it from a branch, but it would take some creativity - and safety checking!

No there is not...it's a tin roof. It seems to me that it would not be too difficult to rig a system to hang it. I personally would not put a hook in the roof, because this bird house is hefty. I would use some heavy stainless steel wire, and put two eye hooks into the sides to mount it. You would have to be careful not to let the screws protrude inside of the house, because it could damage the occupants. You might have to use additional hooks to ensure it remains balanced. I plan to post a picture in the very near future, of my setup...good luck!

they both hook around the main hook for the tree or whatever you want to hang it on. I usually hook one on and fill the other end then hook it when its full :) woodpeckers especially love it.

I purchased a pole that would fit inside the pole top. I used a screw to keep the pole top with attached birdhouse from moving in the wind. Measure your existing pole for outside diameter (not inside) and check the pole top dimensions
