Elaine's Birding Mini Ball Tower Feeder

Elaine's Birding Mini Ball Tower Feeder is a compact suet ball feeder that serves nutritious suet balls to wild birds in your garden. A catchment tray keeps the ground beneath it tidy. It suits South African gardeners and birdwatchers of every level, from seasoned birders to casual observers.

Elaines Birding designed this feeder to be both durable and practical. The body is built from tough powder-coated wire mesh, which gives birds a sturdy cage to cling to and peck through while holding the suet balls securely inside. Beneath the mesh sits an easy-to-clean "No waste, No mess" catchment tray. It collects crumbs and fallen pieces so your patio, lawn or flowerbeds stay free of debris. The decorative lid lifts open for refilling and finishes the feeder neatly.
