Where does the bottom of the spring attach?

The springs on the sides of the feeder go behind the top two leaves, and then hook into one of the holes drilled into the 3rd leaf down. There are varying holes to adjust the weight sensitivity.

How do the springs attach to the top of the feeder?

To fill the feeder, press down on the outer cage and lift up on the lid. Fill with seed, then slide the lid back over the seed tube.

Truly squirrel proof

Honestly a really great bird feeder, even when they try to push it out or hang off it they can't get any seeds. The best one I've ever had.

We do not have any squirrels here, I got this as it's hard to find a feeder where more than a couple of birds can feed at the bottom of it. There is something about the design of the feeder, am not sure if it's the black metal leaves on it that resemble bats, or the fact the holder pins are so far down from the holes, the birds will not touch the food. When I have time I am going to try and modify it, get some metal paint and paint the leaves white, take some needle nose plyers and move all the pins up. Since I work a lot, it's on my list of things to do. Maybe it works better in your area, but I've been feeing birds around here for a long time and they don't like this feeder. It was to replace one I had for about 10 years that was plastic and broke on a windy night, and I can't find a replacement for it but the pins were closer to the feeding holes and the birds loved it.

Apparently the squirrels in Glenside are more capable than your designers think they are. They seem to enjoy the feeder very much. The smaller birds adore it, too, and the bigger birds gather around it eating the birdseed that the smaller birds scatter - though perhaps that is not intentional by the smaller birds. :+)

No more squirrels

I'm so happy to finally watch birds at my feeder. The squirrels have been taking all the seed for far too long.

Not enough room for birds to eat easily

It just didn't seem useful when filled with birdseed there weren't many places for the birds to eat from and everything was too small

Squirrel tore it apart within one week

I need to throw it it. The squirrel pulled it apart and broke it very quickly. It did not work. I’m disappointed.
