Large perch allows better bird variety
The larger perch and dual sides mean finches, cardinals and many other bird types can enjoy this feeder simultaneously with others.
Set this feeder in front of your window to provide hours of bird-watching.
Lid-locking keeps squirrels from dumping over the whole thing
Cheaper “squirrel-resistant feeders” are not always completely squirrel-proof. These clever critters are sometimes able to knock over the entire feeder, spilling out seed for a feast. But this squirrel-resistant feeder has a locking lid mechanism that means even if squirrels knock it over, they’ll have to be pretty savvy to get into it.
Holds several pounds of seed
Feeding birds during the winter time is especially important. However, bundling up and refilling your feeders can be quite a chore.
This feeder holds up to 8-12 pounds of seed. However, the amount you should fill depends also on your mounting system. Sturdier mounts are better suited for a larger volume. If using a shepherd’s hook, we recommend using less.
More details
This attractive, double sided feeder will attract a wide array of birds to your yard, with a locking top and metal spring-activated perches that work together to keep squirrels away. This rugged, all-metal squirrel-proof feeder has two counter balance perches adjustable to three positions to allow light, medium or heavy birds on the perch. The wrong bird or squirrel closes access to seed. Top locks down securely preventing squirrel access and when a squirrel steps onto the perch, a metal shield immediately covers the seed tray, shutting off the seed supply. Holding up to 12 lbs. of birds favorite mixed seed, sunflower seeds, peanut halves or safflower, this large capacity feeder requires less frequent filling. Stop birds from shoveling food out with the no waste seed saver baffle. Simply unlatch the squirrel resistant roof and lift for easy filling and cleaning, while seed level indicator window shows when feeder is empty. The overhanging roof and hopper keeps the seed dry and protected from the elements and the all- steel body ensures it will withstand all types of weather and unwanted critters in your backyard for many seasons.
