Combine a wicked sense of humor with Yankee ingenuity and what do you get? “The World’s Best Bird Feeders®,” that’s what!
Friends Peter Kilham and Alan Bemis started Droll Yankees as a Rhode Island-based record label in 1960 to preserve the off-color humor and tales that are unique to old New England. Peter, an engineer, artist, and inventor, was also an avid backyard birder. In 1969, he invented the first ever commercial bird feeder — model A-6F — which revolutionized bird feeder design and which continues to be an industry-wide best seller. Filled with entrepreneurial passion, he produced the first hundred by hand before going to American manufacturers to keep up with demand for his innovative new feeder.
For nearly half a century, we’ve proudly been an American company, and to this day, we source the majority of our components from domestic manufacturers.
With a great collection to choose from, Droll Yankees creates feeders that generations of bird lovers have appreciated because of their quality construction and functional simplicity. Building on the high standards Peter Kilham set for Droll Yankees almost half a century ago, we continue to offer the highest quality feeders that make us what we are; The World’s Best Bird Feeder Since 1969.
