    Melanie D. from Long Island, New YorkThis bird feeder has attracted many birds to my parents yard, specifically cardinals. My parents now refer to their yard as a 'bird sanctuary.'     Kadee W. from Ferndale, WAI live in a rainy climate and the water soaks the seeds. I am using it for just regular wild bird.     Goldie M. from Baltimore, MDThe birds love this feeder. It's great for perching birds and clinging birds. Of my several feeders, it's the one the birds clean out first. However, it has two problems that make it more difficult to use. First, it does not stand on its own. If you put it on the floor to fill, it collapses, since the chain links are loose and there's no structure to hold the feeder in full open position. This is especially problematic if there's some seed remaining in the feeder. To fill it, you have to hold it in one hand while holding the cover open with the same hand (a bit tricky) and then fill with the other. You can't put it down to fill another feeder or it collapses sprinkling seed all over the place. To combat this, I rigged up an S-hook and hung the feeder from it. Second, when you're filling it, the seeds pour out of the chain links. Much seed is wasted on the floor. You have to fill it with the feeder sitting in the seed bag so the seeds fall back into the bag. It's a great design for birds, but a challenge for people. |
