Photo of Over 3 weeks and no birds!?

Here's a pic of the cedar feeder (see the speck hanging from the tree near the center of the pic). I would think this one would be placed perfectly, except I'm not sure about the height because of the dropoff. It's hanging from a tree at the edge of the woods, but visible from the open area above and around the pool. So there's cover nearby ( the woods are dense with cedar, but not brushy and they go back probably half a mile from here) but they should be able to see the feeder.

The height is about 7 or 8 feet off the ground (I have to use a ladder to fill it but that hasn't been a problem so far. . . and therein lies the problem. ;o) ) but with the dropoff from the pool right there, it doesn't look that high.

Notice the birdbath below and to the right of it in the pic.
