Hanging Bird Feeder Squirrel Proof for Outdoor Wild Bird Seed, Brown...

Love the look and design and very easy to re-fill, but its definitely not squirrel proof lol

This is a good feeder, in size as well as allowing only smaller birds access. However, there are NO weep holes in the base. So if it rains heavily, any remaining seed gets wet, is ruined, and blocks the feeding spouts.

Good product. Easy to fill. Definitely NOT squirrel proof. They've partially destroyed/chewed the perches and have broken the hinge on the top. Was able to band aid it with a zip tie but they still open it and spill out the contents on a regular basis.

Its a birdfeeder, so I use it to feed birds. The birds seem to be happy. Its lightweight and easy to hang back up when filled. The birdfeeder is made of plastic, and it looks like it. However, it works, and because its plastic, it is also light weight. This is not such a bad idea, bc We dont have a tree we can hang it on, so I hung birdfeeder on a black steel pole made to hang plants on, or birdfeeders. Whenever it rains hard the bird seed gets soaking wet, bc the feeding tray is wide. However, the birds dont seem to mind that either. If the bird seed sprouts, I just go out and throw the sprouted seeds out and re- fill the bird feeder. It needs to be cleaned every so often, so you just take it down, put good birdseed in a jar, or can, or maybe even a bag, clean what needs cleaning, re- fill it, and voila!

The media could not be loaded. So, first off, its such a pretty design, and easy to fill, and sturdy. However, the product picture is photoshopped and misleading. The birds in that picture would have to be 2 inches long! For real birds, the railing to stand on is much too small. I have seen cardinals use mine, but a blue jay just tried and bless his heart he kept trying over and over but he was just too heavy! He finally got a bite by hanging on the bar like doing a chinup and stretching his neck forward, but after that he gave up to pursue easier food. If you are looking to feed finches this would be great! On the upside, no crows are going to bully all the other birds at the feeder. And no squirrels have gotten to mine (and I have a ton of squirrels) Update: OK, Im updating to 4.5 stars (rounded to 5) cardinals are visiting regularly, and cute little finches love it. When leaving seed out on surfaces, the finches never seemed to feel safe enough to come eat. I hung this feeder high up, from the branch of a tree. Little birds seem to feel very safe eating from it. Picture of a cardinal so you can get idea about size. Third update: going up to 5+ stars! The cardinals and finches absolutely love it, AND the bluejays have figured out how to use it! (Video attached.). The squirrels have also figured out how to get the seeds by hanging from their back feet from the overhead branch and stretching down to grab some seeds. Its all extremely amusing! Highly recommended, now that the wildlife has learned the ropes.
