The Droll Yankees New Generation Thistle Feeder features an excellent design that will make a wonderful addition to any backyard sanctuary. Birds may rest comfortably on the six individual perches at the thistle seed ports. The clear, U.V. stabilized, polycarbonate feeder tube keeps the seed level visible at all times and is perfect for holding 1.5 pounds of seed. The cap, base, and perches are durable metal and feature a powder-coated, no rust, burgundy finish. An internal seed baffle design directs seed to the ports so that the feeder empties completely without leaving a dirty residue. Simply slide the die-cast metal cap up the hanger for quick, convenient cleaning and filling. With its durable construction, the Droll Yankees New Generation Thistle Feeder will faithfully serve the birds in your wildlife habitat season after season. This feeder may be hung on the included metal loop hanger or pole mounted using any pole with a 3/4-inch threaded adaptor (not included). Made in the U.S.A. Lifetime Guarantee.

Great Nyger Feeder Well made feeder with good nyger capacity and ample space for 6 visitors at a time. I purchased the rain guard and seed tray which perfect the feeder.
Need some patience with this feeder This bird feeder has me stumped! It is very well constructed and made from top notch materials. It has been hanging for 3 months, the thistle seed stays perfectly dry, but the birds have shunned it. I have only seen 1 bird on it and very little seed has disappeared. Perhaps activity will pick up in the spring…..Update 01/18/2013—Weather warmed up, I moved the feeder, and bird activity has picked up. Seed still dry and loose. 🙂
Solidly built, reliable feeder Solidly built feeder as one would expect from this brand. Has dropped a couple of times from moderate heights and has not broken. Feeding ports hold up well. Goldfinches flock to it all day. It loses a star as I wish it had metal to protect the port openings, but they seem to be doing okay thus far.
