Bird feeders being mounted high off the ground is often done to discourage Squirrels from getting in on the action. Also, different breeds of birds have places - and heights - where they are most comfortable eating. Some will not eat from a low hanging spot. Some will eat off the ground. Perches v Platforms are also variables. All of these factors will determine which birds will take advantage of the hospitality being offerred.
Amazing what a squirrel will do to get to a bird feeder...
One day I noticed a few people on the street taking pictures of my bird feeder with their cell phones.
I looked over to the feeder and was surprised to see a deer eating from it ... LOL
