Cardinal
Bird Feeders
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 are very eager to
dine at most any available bird feeder but prefer
a steady, stationary feeder over a hanging bird
feeder. Pole-mounted gazebo feeders tend to be
more accommodating to Cardinals and are usually
more successful in attracting them. Cardinals
also 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.

seed, peanut bits, safflower seed,
