Six feeding ports, an integrated Cardinal Ring, and approximately 5 pounds of seed capacity give it the scale to handle regular traffic without constant refilling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe feeder uses Brome's weight-activated Squirrel Buster system to close access to the seed ports when a squirrel climbs aboard. An adjustable closing mechanism lets you fine-tune the threshold for the birds you want to feed, while the Cardinal Ring provides extra perching space for larger songbirds that prefer a more stable stance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eScientific Engineering\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight-Activated Squirrel Protection:\u003c\/strong\u003e The outer shroud lowers under squirrel weight and blocks access to the feeding ports without harming the animal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSix Feeding Ports:\u003c\/strong\u003e Multiple stations support a busy mix of backyard birds at the same time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCardinal Ring:\u003c\/strong\u003e A dedicated circular perch gives cardinals and other larger perching birds a broader, more comfortable feeding position.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustable Weight Control:\u003c\/strong\u003e The closing mechanism can be tuned to help determine which birds are heavy enough to trigger the shroud.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApprox. 5-Pound Capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e A larger seed reservoir reduces the frequency of refilling in active feeding areas.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual Mounting Options:\u003c\/strong\u003e Designed for hanging use or pole mounting with the compatible Brome Pole Adapter.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDishwasher-Safe Components:\u003c\/strong\u003e Designed for easier routine cleaning.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChew-Resistant Construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Built to resist damage from persistent squirrels.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBoutique \u0026amp; Conservation Values\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-Capacity Everyday Feeding:\u003c\/strong\u003e A strong choice for properties with steady bird activity and higher seed demand.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelps Reduce Seed Loss:\u003c\/strong\u003e Weight-activated exclusion keeps more of the seed supply available for birds.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCardinal-Friendly Design:\u003c\/strong\u003e The integrated ring adds usable perching space without requiring a separate accessory.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLong-Service Support:\u003c\/strong\u003e Backed by the manufacturer's lifetime warranty program.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSteward's Insight\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the closing mechanism is adjustable, this feeder can be tuned more precisely than a fixed-threshold squirrel-proof model. Start with the factory setting, observe which birds are using the feeder, and make small adjustments only if heavier birds are being excluded or unwanted larger visitors are still gaining access.
