The need for clearance

Remember it’s the squirrel’s weight that triggers the closing mechanism. If a squirrel can reach over from a nearby foothold and avoid placing weight on the feeder, he will have access to the seed ports. Allow for at least 18 inches or 47 cm of clearance around the feeder. This will force the squirrel to climb onto the feeder, thus triggering the closing mechanism.

Locating your feeder

You can locate this bird feeder anywhere and be squirrel free. Position it to get great close-up views of your favorite birds. Hang your feeder over a window, in a tree, on a deck, a fence, in your garden, on the side of your house, from a rain trough or over sliding doors. Use brackets, extension hooks and tree hooks to hang your feeder at the recommended clearance. Hooks and brackets are available at birding stores, garden centers and hardware supply stores. Your feeder prevents squirrels from eating expensive seed, scaring the birds and damaging your feeder. Enjoy being free of squirrel problems, but please remember, squirrels also need to eat. For the price of a few peanuts, or inexpensive cracked corn, squirrels will be happy to entertain.

I’m now in my mid 50s and I guess getting older changes your perspective on some things. I never really paid much attention to birds other the game birds I hunted and the annoying grackles we have around here. I bought a new home a few years ago and began to see and watch birds that would come around my back yard. I would hear them sing from time to time and enjoyed it. So, out of the blue one day I decided I wanted a feeder but didn’t want the squirrels eating the feed (I don’t care too much for squirrels). I looked for several days and came across this feeder. This feeder is great. I love how it’s set up and it a very well built product. It’s easy to hang and take down and dismantle for cleaning. The mechanism for the ports to close if weighted is ingenious. Even better is you can adjust the spring tension so that it takes more, or less, weight to make it slide to cover the ports. I have so many birds now it crazy. I have seen birds that I never seen in my life. Now when a go outside I usually hear multiple songs being sang. I love it. I’ve only seen one squirrel try to get into it and it was an utter failure for it. The birds just hung around on the nearby limbs and went right back to feeding once it took off. The only issue I have now is I have so many birds that have to fill the feeder every day. Sometimes twice a day. I’ll probably end up getting another one. If you’re thinking about getting one of these, I know they are not cheap, but they are worth every penny in my opinion.

Great feeder!

★★★★★
The SquirrelBuster Legacy is terrific. For years I tried to find a bird feeder that fed birds and not squirrels. This is the solution. I have had it for over a year and it works like a charm. It is exactly as advertised. I highly recommend it!

Sticking

★★★☆☆
my legacy was working great until it wasn't - now i have to hand close and open the feed from the base - it seems to be sticking - when bully birds show up I close it and when they are gone I re open it - it is not closing automatically even though I have it set to the lightest birds - all the way to the negative sign - I've cleaned it and it is still happening - help?

I received me of these as a gift and loved it so much I bought another. I have saved a lot of bird feed and my birds love to eat from this feeder. I would highly recommend it .
