Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The Droll Yankees Observer window bird feeder is made of clear plastic, so you can actually watch the birds as they stroll up to your avian-size dining table. The feeder holds up to 2 cups of seed, and features sleek lines and a tapered overhanging roof that deflects the weather. Unlike tree-hanging feeders, this unit attaches securely to the outside of a kitchen or living room window with three suction cups. It measures 7 by 3 by 7 inches (W x D x H), includes a 2-inch feeding dish, and carries a lifetime warranty.

5.0 out of 5 stars Even the flickers like it, October 2, 2001

The chickadees discovered the feeder 10 minutes after it was put up. Even a northern red-shafted flicker gave it a try and looked pretty silly in the bargain (the feeder is perfect for finch sized birds).

Safe from squirrels and directly in view (if you sit still for a few minutes, the birds will use it right in front of your face), this is the best feeder I've ever had.

NB: if you put up this type of feeder, you should also (should anyway) put up bird silhouettes in the windows. This will prevent birds from flying into your windows and injuring or even killing themselves.

1.0 out of 5 stars A danger to birds and windows, April 14, 2002

I was given this as a house warming gift, and it was cute and charming and we did enjoy watching birds coming to feed right outside the window. We had to remove it within a month because:

- Birds hovering around it kept flying into the glass and injuring themselves.
- Squirrels kept jumping into the glass at high speed to raid it.
- Bird body waste kept accumulating on the window.

It seems like a good idea until after you pick up a dead bird or two from the ground below it, and you realize you really aren't doing much for birdkind with this feeder. The squirrels attacking it hit the window with enough noise to make everyone in the house jump, and it's just luck the glass didn't break and we didn't have a squirrel in the kitchen. Maybe if you have smarter birds and dumber squirrels it will work for you.
