  
The Cardinal may
be the most popular bird to feed and attract, especially in the
eastern part of the United States. Male Cardinals are known by
their brilliant red feathers and majestic crested heads. Female
Cardinals, while also beautiful, sport a more subtle dull reddish
color. Cardinals are a non-migratory bird and will stay in an
area as long as food and adequate shelter is available throughout
the year. Cardinals prefer bird feeders that are about 5-6 feet
above the ground. They will visit your feeder starting early in
the morning and they'll keep returning to it well into the
evening. Since Cardinals dine early in the morning and late in
the evening, they have plenty of time for entertaining you by
singing all day long while the other birds are taking their turns
at your bird feeder. Unlike many birds, both the males and
females are very vocal and will sing all year long. Sunflower seeds are a favorite food for
Cardinals. They will usually sift through the entire mixture of
seeds to get to every sunflower seed before starting in on the
other seeds. They also enjoy white proso millet and safflower
seeds when they can't get sunflower seeds.
Thousands of delighted customers (and well-fed Cardinals) confirm
that the patented Squirrel Buster PLUS™ bird feeder is
truly Squirrel Proof! Openings in the bottom section of the
feeder align with seed ports, providing birds access to the seed.
When a squirrel climbs onto the feeder, its weight automatically
forces the shroud down, closing the seed ports. Squirrels and
large birds are foiled but not harmed in any way. The Squirrel
Buster Plus™ breaks new ground with design features
available for the first time on any bird feeder. The Squirrel
Buster Plus™ can be used with or without the Cardinal Ring
System™, an optional posi-grip ring designed especially for
Cardinals. Cardinals prefer to grip a thick-textured perch and
because it's awkward for them to turn their short necks to feed,
they prefer to face their food source directly. The Squirrel
Buster Plus™ Cardinal Ring System™ allows Cardinals
to eat facing the seed from a secure and comfortable perch. These
Cardinal-friendly feeding features combined with a bush-level
location make the Squirrel Buster Plus™ very inviting to
our scarlet friends.
•Built-to-Last
Construction - made of rugged UV-filtered ABS and
Polycarbonate resins and powder-coated aluminum components.
Hangers, springs and fasteners are made from stainless steel.
•Dishwasher Safe Design - easily cleans to
maintain a safe and healthy feeder
•Detachable Component System™ -
components are designed to be assembled and dismantled easily by
hand, without tools
•Seed Tube Ventilation System™ - Most
transparent bird feeder seed tubes trap solar energy just like a
greenhouse. The air in Squirrel Buster Plus™ rises and
escapes through patented water-proof vents at the top of the
feeder. The escaping, heated air is replaced by fresh air
entering through the seed ports at the bottom of the tube. The
birdseed remains fresh, attracting more birds.
•Adjustable Posi-Grip Perch™ - Thick,
adjustable-length perches with textured surfaces provide a secure
and comfortable grip for birds. Attract small birds such as
Chickadees and Finches (while deterring larger birds like
Grackles and Starlings) by shortening the perches.
•Cardinal Ring System™ - The Squirrel
Buster Plus™ can be used with or without the Cardinal Ring
System™ (included with feeder purchase), an optional
posi-grip ring designed especially for Cardinals. The Squirrel
Buster Plus™ Cardinal Ring System™ allows Cardinals
to eat facing the seed from a secure and comfortable perch.
