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.
