Bird Feeders for Outside, Bird Feeder, Wild Bird Seed for Outside Feeders, Squirrel Proof Birds Feeder and Garden Decoration Yard for Bird Watchers (Grey)

The media could not be loaded. So, first off, it’s 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, I’m 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. It’s all extremely amusing! Highly recommended, now that the wildlife has learned the ropes.

I absolutely love this bird feeder! It was my first one and super easy to set up. I placed it on my balcony and after 1 week suddenly a bunch of birds have started coming. My cat loves to watch all the birds, best purchase.

Our previous bird feeder was larger and we fed a lot of cardinals (good) and house finches (bad, an invasive non-native species in North Carolina.) along with a variety of other birds. This bird feeder is too small for them fit on. So if you want to keep house finches away, it's great. If you want to feed cardinals, not so good. The cardinals would fly toward it, but at the last minute, pull up and back away. So if you want to feed titmice, nuthatches and chickadees, this birdfeeder is great. The seeds don't spill out into the tray. They have to reach in to a tube to pull a seed out. The birdseed lasts a long time in this feeder. (We stock with black oil sunflower seed exclusively. That is a favority food of cardinals.) We will see if, when it gets colder and other natural food sources become scarce, the cardinals figure out a way.

As has been pointed out by other reviewers, this feeder has one big design flaw and one small flaw.The big flaw is that the central hanging cable runs through the center of the feeder and allows water to quickly enter the seed chamber. The fix is really easy however. The wire cable has a loop at the top for hanging, and the loop is secured with a oval compression sleeve. Take a piece of round plastic thin enough to work with, thick enough to stay firm in the weather (i used a thermal sealing cap from a pill bottle) punch a tiny hole in the center of that plastic, and pinch the top of the wire loop flat, thread it through the tiny hole, and then push the plastic piece down the wire until it sits on top of the oval compression sleeve After expanding the wire loop again, you have a wire hanger that will now shed any water off the wire cable, onto the brown roof of the feeder. No water can infect the seed chamber. Make sure the plastic part you put on has a diameter of at least 1.5 inches.The second minor flaw is that to fill the seed chamber you unlatch the roof and it hinges down. However if one is not careful, you will spread seeds everywhere in the process. Solution, be careful when opening and filling.Now personally i found the feeder a little plasticy and cheesy. However the local birds absolutely love it, they started using it within 4 hours of me hanging it, and it is the most visited feeder we have.We do not have a squirrel problem in these parts, so i cannot relay any information about that particular issue. But the local songbirds gave it 5 stars ...

Cute in appearance. Very light weight. Cheap! Hopefully it will last the season.

It seems very nice. Arrived when expected & was well packaged. Easy to open & fill with birdseed. So far I've only had a mockingbird visit.

Holding up well , even in the rain. Birds are slow to eat from it because they’re used to eating from the grass.Easy to assemble. Very cute green

I am editing my original review. Yes, for the price, been happy with this feeder. However, I have now purchased 2 . Birds love it, squirrels struggle to get inside and dump. The perches break off rather quickly. Because it's so inexpensive, I'm okay with replacing frequently. I've decided to try another brand. If I have the same issue, I'll go back to this feeder again.
