About this piece
Enjoy watching chickadees, finches, nuthatches, titmice, and other small songbirds feed while reducing visits from gray squirrels and many larger birds. Our Metal Selective Feeder surrounds the seed tube with a durable wire mesh cage that allows smaller birds to feed comfortably while limiting access by gray squirrels and larger species.
This model includes a sturdy metal seed tray that catches dropped seed before it reaches the ground. The tray helps reduce waste, provides birds with an additional place to perch while feeding, and features drainage holes to help shed rainwater. Six feeding ports provide plenty of room for multiple birds to feed inside the protective fly-through cage, while the clear seed tube makes it easy to monitor seed levels.
A large 10-1/2 inch all-metal roof helps shield seed from rain and snow, reducing spoilage and the need for frequent refills. Integrated squirrel-locking discs help keep the roof securely in place. The feeder fills easily from the top without disassembly and features durable powder-coated metal construction with a clear plastic seed tube.
