A feeder that runs dry every day or lets rain soak into the seed means you're refilling constantly and birds are picking through clumped, spoiled food.
This feeder holds up to 2.6 lbs of seed under a sloped, gazebo-style roof that keeps rain and direct sun off the food, while a hexagonal feeding tray lets birds land and eat from any side. As birds clear seed from the tray, more drops down from the reservoir automatically, so it stays topped up without you checking it multiple times a day.
Key Features & Benefits
- 2.6 lb seed capacity → Holds enough seed, peanuts, or sunflower mix to go several days between refills, cutting down on how often you're out there with a scoop.
- Sloped hexagonal roof → Shields seed from rain and direct sun, reducing mold and spoilage compared to open-tray feeders.
- Gravity-fed tray design → Automatically refills the feeding tray as birds clear seed, keeping food accessible without manual leveling.
- All-angle hexagonal deck → Gives birds landing and feeding access from six sides at once, supporting more birds feeding simultaneously than a narrow perch design.
- Clear plastic body → Lets you see remaining seed levels at a glance, so refills happen before the feeder actually runs empty.
- Twist-lock lid and removable base → Opens for quick refills and comes apart for cleaning, without tools or disassembling the whole unit.

Why Backyard Birders Choose This Feeder
Open-tray feeders leave seed exposed to weather, which leads to clumping, mold, and wasted food after a single rainstorm. The sloped roof and hexagonal tray here solve that while also opening up feeding access to more birds at once, since a hexagon gives six approach angles instead of the one or two most tube feeders offer. Combined with the twist-lock lid, it's built for people who want a feeder they check every few days, not every few hours.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much seed does this feeder hold?
It holds up to 2.6 lbs of seed, which is enough for several days of feeding depending on how many birds visit your yard.
What types of birds does this feeder attract?
It's designed to attract common backyard species including cardinals, tits, pigeons, magpies, bluebirds, warblers, and starlings, using seed types like sunflower seeds, peanuts, and mixed flower seeds.
Is this feeder weatherproof?
Yes. The sloped, gazebo-style roof covers the seed reservoir to protect it from rain and direct sun, helping prevent mold and spoilage.
How do I refill and clean the feeder?
Twist open the lid on top to refill seed, and remove the base tray for cleaning without needing to take apart the rest of the unit.
Care Note
Empty and rinse the feeder every 2 to 3 weeks even if seed remains, since moisture can build up inside the reservoir and cause mold that isn't always visible from outside.
