It is not recommended to put out bird feeders until after Dec 1. Bears.

And possibly not even Dec 1st if it continues being this warm. A couple black bears came snuffling right up to my back door last year; and I'm close to town. I had already quit feeding the birds but they knocked over the trash can just to make sure, and took a dump in a couple choice places. They also ate one of my chickens. Then I put up the electric fence. My advice would be to visit your local country store and ask about bears before putting out a neon sign.
