We attract hundreds of House Finches to our yard (Coastal Southern California) with this feeder filled with black oil sunflower seed. The optional seed catch tray helps the mourning doves get at the seed, but there is still a layer of empty shells under the feeder. The tray doesn't really catch very much!

We have several of these feeders and they always attract numerous birds using black oil sunflower seed. While our other feeders (Droll Yankee, etc.) are often emptied by deer, these are not . Of course nothing stops squirrels, chipmunks and raccoons.

We get tons of great birds in our area (mideast) and these feeders are perfect for all kinds of feed. We have a couple with just shelled sunflower seeds and a couple with fruit and nut mixtures, which attract tons of Goldfinches, flickers, Cardinals etc. We also have a baffle on our feeders so we have no problems with squirrels pulling out the green metal rings. If you can keep squirrels off of them, they are great feeders.

This bird feeder was a great deal and very cool looking but once in use all the small green hole plugs/rings fall out making it impossible to keep any bird seed in the feeder. This happened every day for a week despite my attempts to replace them and fit them into the holes better.
