With cheerful songs and gentle grace, birds enrich the natural environment of most every yard. While plants, flowers, and bird feeders provide food for our feathered friends, the small birds often must compete with more aggressive, larger birds and critters such as squirrels to find adequate nourishment. Heritage Farms caters to these petite birds with this squirrel-proof bird feeder.

Thoughtfully designed, the bird feeder's main body is crafted with hardy powder-coated steel to resist battering and weather damage. An attractive hardwood perch provides a sitting place for small finches, orioles and other birds while dining. To allow seed to flow unhindered into feeding ports, Heritage Farms installed a sloped seed hopper and a seed baffle. The feeder holds up to 2-1/2 gallons of birdseed. See-through polycarbonate windows let owners monitor the birdseed levels. A clever counterweight system closes the feeding ports when it senses the mass of larger birds or squirrels, leaving these greedy creatures to seek food elsewhere to help keep squirrels and other pesky critters out of the bird feeder. The counterweight also helps conserve seed for more economical distribution. A heavy-duty steel pole accompanies the feeder for mounting upright. Heritage Farms also provides a hanging hook for users who prefer to hang the feeder from a tree branch. For the best results, hang the bird feeder near trees and bushes rather than in the open where birds feel vulnerable to predators. Users should regularly clean the feeder with equal parts water and white vinegar to protect the birds from bacteria and disease. Avoid use chemicals on the bird feeder. Birdseed is not included with the feeder. Heritage Farms offers limited five-year warranty for this item. The feeder weighs 13 pounds upon shipping. --Jessica Reuling

Summary: Excellent Feeder!
Comment: This was a gift for my mother, who is an avid birdwatcher. She was thrilled about this item....said that it is a lot bigger than the feeder she replaced. She said its' material would make it last, since it's coated with a smooth water-resistant paint on metal, so it's great for all weather. She also likes that she can set the weight on it for a specific animal, so that if it was perched on it, the stand would shut the feeder area, therefore protecting the seed for the birds. She loves it!

Summary: Love this Bird feeder
Comment: This is the second squirrelproof birdfeeder I've bought. The first one lasted 12 years. It's a hoot to watch squirrels try to get the seeds. It's very well made. This model also has a green powdercoat finish that will most likely look better longer. I prefer the pole mount but it also comes with a hanging wire which is nice. This is a quality product that is a joy to own.

Summary: Easily destroyed by squirrels
Comment: Wow, this was disappointing. First, the squirrels kept simply pulling the perch off--easily done since it fits very poorly. I kept trying to find a way to make it stay on, but had no luck. They also managed to jostle the thing around enough that three of the four screws holding the feeder on the post worked their way out. At that point, a couple of squirrels climbed on the roof of the feeder, causing it to flip sideways and actually bend the platform on the top of the pole, leaving the feeder hanging sideways. Note that we live in a city with a fenced in yard--it's not like a bear came and mauled the feeder--the only animals that can get into our yard are squirrels and birds.
