Bird Feeders for Outdoors Squirrel Proof

A hanging metal feeder with weight-activated perches that close for heavy visitors. holds 3 lb of seed, green finish, and it favors cardinals, finches, blue jays, and chickadees.

This is the kind of yard gadget that works like a small machine. The perches shift when something heavy climbs on, so squirrels and big birds push themselves off while the smaller birds keep eating. It hangs from a branch or hook and holds about 3 lb of seed, so you don’t have to refill it every day. The metal body is green, so it blends into a shrub or tree. It’s a simple, slightly odd fix if someone in your life spends a lot of time watching the feeder and muttering about freeloading squirrels.
