I LOVE my Roamwild 3 bird feeder and had it filled and hung up within 10 minutes of it arriving!
( Just a helpful hint for your packing dept though. Make sure the ends of the box are really securely fastened with strong tape as the box had come unfastened during delivery but thankfully the inner contents were in tact.)
Unlike my other feeder ( version 2,) that I purchased from you, this new version had the “ Corvid Covers.”
I have never before had any trouble with larger birds and the smaller birds can eat in peace, BUT for some unknown reason we have suddenly had an influx of tenacious and very agile magpies who spent ALL DAY emptying my unprotected feeder!
I enjoyed watching them and was astounded by their efforts and abilities!
I thought our squirrels were ingenious but the magpies gave them a run for their money.
I have the feeders hanging from a metal pole “ feeding station” and they used the pole to cling on to ( almost upside down) while they reached for the seed with their beaks.
I want the feeders for all the smaller birds as I feed the larger birds regularly from a wall top.
( The saying is appropriate that they “ see me coming” as they start calling to each other as soon as I approach the wall!!)
SO…… my husband has been commissioned to make a new weatherproof pole that will have a much wider “ T shaped top” with plenty of height so the feeders can hang down out of their reach!!
( It’s his birthday gift to me. I’m a “ low maintenance” practical woman, who loves things home made, so it will be a perfect gift.)
The new feeder is less accessible to magpies having the covers but I wondered if it’s possible to fit something onto my “ style 2” feeder to stop that being attacked until I get my new pole. Any ideas?
(If not, my long suffering and very resourceful hubby will have to try and invent something!!)
Thankyou for the wonderful hours of pleasure I have had by using your lovely bird feeders that AT LAST the squirrels can’t raid!
( I have tried so many others in the past, that just weren’t effective. We have generations of squirrels on our land, but there is enough natural food for them, so I don’t want them raiding my feeders!)
I will never buy any feeders now that aren’t from Roam Wild, and have recommended your product to all my friends.
Our garden is a haven for all wildlife but I am so very aware of how some of the smaller birds can suffer with lack of resources or from zoonotic diseases from contracted from other birds and other species.
On that note, I would also like to thank you for making your feeders so very easy to strip down and sterilize…. It’s my regular Sunday afternoon job!
A very well deserved 5 stars for your excellent designers.
Kind regards,
Mrs Christine Scholes.
