Duncraft 18834 Selective Squirrel Block Feeder
It’s well made and heavy for it’s size so it doesn’t swing around like a plastic feeder. The Finches love it.

For some odd reason the squirrels this year are simply mad. I’ve had all of my feeders literally torn apart by squirrels. They eat through acrylic, hard plastic, wood. I think they’re possessed or something.
I did a lot of on-line research about squirrel proof feeders and this one came up as the best value. The next step are the $60 feeders. Hopefully I’ll never have to do that. The birds seem to love the feeder, and I am no longer burning through expensive feed. I saw one squirrel try to touch the feeder, but he gave up after about 5 seconds. Their hands simply can’t get to the food.

I’ve been through a few feeders looking for something simple that beats the squirrels. This one fits the bill. Its all metal construction prevents chewing, and the distance between the inner wire mesh feed tube and outer cage is sized to allow the birds to reach the seeds with ease. The squirrels can’t get at them. It has attracted woodpeckers, nuthatches, titmice and cardinals (which eat seeds that spill on the ground below it). It has a simple locking tab on top that seals the lid but allows for easy refilling.
I just wish it was made in the USA instead of China, like so many other things. I’d happily pay more for that.
