Droll Yankees

The song birds seem to enjoy the feeder. I did a double take to see squirrel go up the shepherds hook and then down and get into the narrow space of feed tray under the dome. Have adjusted that spacing.

The double arm hanger works very well. We made it more stable by modifying the mounting to a wood porch post. The system works well for us. Have finally gotten rid of temptation for raccoon.

This is one of the best squirrel proof feeders. The perches really do collapse under the weight of the squirrel. And they are tough as nails. I have used other Yankee products and somehow the little critters managed to UNSCREW the perches. This one has them fooled.

It really works. It keeps the squirrels and raccoons out.

I really love this bird feeder! I had one of them for 15 years, but it finally broke and I was so worried they would not still have it in stock. I purchased two this time and hang them side by side. It definitely is not squirrel proof as they climb up the shepherd's hook I have them hanging from and then hang on for dear life to the dome and either eat upside down or swing into the bowl and settle there. It amuses my cat to no end (and me, too). The birds love it just as much. My papa cardinals feed their little babies by flying back and forth from the feeder to the hedge until the babies are old enough to "settle" into the base and eat on their own. The blue jays also like it, even though they are bigger and have to be careful when they fly in. I noticed it now comes in a light blue color, too, but I like the clear ones the best. Thanks for a great feeder at a reasonable price!
