We bought this feeder for our lakehouse. We have had hours of enjoyment watching a variety of birds come to feed. We have also had fun watching our many squirrels come and hang off the tree and eat our bird seed. We have our feeder hanging from a plant hanger hook mounted to a tree trunk. The squirrels hang out from the side of the tree trunk and eat the seed without any problem. We enjoy watching all of our critters eat.

Okay, so I am a reformed skeptic! This feeder has provided me with more entertainment value than any backyard addition! Squirrels cannot get seed! And they fall like leaves after trying! My birds are eating - the fat squirrels are loosing weight! I t's been a week - and I really need to set up a web cam to watch the invasion attempts from the little rodents!
