Just moved into DeLuna. There are very few songbirds around.
Is there any rules against having a small bird feeder in the back yard ?

No.

You should your deed restrictions. You may or may not get accurate answers here.

Heard that bird feeders bring more rats than song birds here. Rats live in top of palms.

Rule or no rule, please respect your neighbors, and don't install one. And please, don't even think about hanging a wind chime. Silence is golden, and noise travels beyond your property.

One could check with neighbors who may enjoy having birds around.

True. You don't want to upset the neighbors who have their TV on at 120 decibels while sitting on their lanai.

One other thing to add to the rats is snakes, remember your food chain

As heard from a Harley rider with loud pipes.

I had feeders up for about 6 months when we first moved here. Saw very little activity from the song birds. Then realized that it was too open for them. They were uncomfortable feeding in the open (not many trees in our back yard). We also have a lot of hawks and owls in our neck of the woods. Decided to take down the feeders as it would make them more vulnerable to their predators. Besides, Avian flu is still around and attracting birds en mass is not a good idea at this point in time.

Birds don’t need our help here in Florida because we have no snow to cover vegetation. Insects are available year round for them to eat. But, if you do decide to put up a feeder, please do it responsibly to reduce the spread of disease.

I have 6 wind chimes. Does that mean I shouldn't put them up?

Yes, you can put them up. Just remember that they also attract rats and tree rats, opossum and racoons so I would not put it close to your home.
Enjoy the birds

We have lots of songbirds (cardinals, blue birds, scarlet tanagers, mockingbirds etc.) at our home in Amelia. They particularly like our bottlebrush trees. Shrubbery helps. I so enjoy the cheerful chirping. They are particularly active now.

Some people like the tingling sound. Some people hate it. I'm in the second group.
