Pleasantly Suprised!,
Well, after reading lots of reviews about similar products, I decided to purchase this one- even though some had stated that it wasn’t very good. First let me point out that there are no directions with this feeder- so really it’s best to follow the advice of others that have posted reviews as far as the best way to hang the feeder. I put the feeder up, put in some food, and waited. A few hours later we heard a crash! I was horrified that my brand new feeder had crashed down and shattered into a billion pieces. I should probably add that I live in a dormitory on the third floor with both grass and cement below us. I was very relieved to find the feeder still completely intact…and was able to find the suction cups nearby as well. I then went back and found some of the reviews that suggest how to prepare the window and suctions cups so the feeder will stay in place. I washed the window very well, and washed the suction cups in warm soapy water. I let both air dry completely. Then, as suggested by another purchaser, I ran my finger gently across my t-zone (forehead and bridge of nose) and then wiped the finger across the suction cups. This very small amount of natural oil is said to help the suctions cups stick. After firmly placing the cups on the window I attached the feeder- and haven’t had any problems with it since! We’ve had some pretty tough thunderstorms too! It did take almost 2 wks for the birds to find the feeder- but now they love it and I lvoe to watch/hear them! We’ve had cardinals, sparrows, several different type of finch’s and others that I don’t recognize. I should note that this is a fairly small feeder and really accomodates only one bird at a time (some of the small sparrows will feed 2 at a time). I’m considering purchasing another to place nearby! I really love how close you can get to the birds without disturbing them- the opening on the back is great to have because then the only thing seperateing you from the birds is the glass of your own window! I highly recommend (just remember to prep the window and suction cups before “hanging”)!

I have been pleasantly surprised with this little feeder. As you can see in the video clip, the feeder can be filled to the brim with seeds and hold 2 birds and still not fall. In fact, I have had two of these feeders on my windows for well over three months and have yet to have them fall off. The birds enjoy eating out of these feeders – despite the fact our cats leap into the window trying to attack them. They provide hours of entertainment.

Installation was a breeze. I cleaned the window well, then stuck on the suction cups.
It didn’t take the birds long to find it. We’ve had Chickadees, Blue Jays, Cardinals, Titmouse, and more.
We have a cat that often sits in that windowsill and it doesn’t deter the birds from eating. (Don’t worry, the window is always closed, and he can’t get to the birds.)
