Historical
note: In 1969 Peter Kilham developed the A-6F tubular bird feeder
(above, right), leading to a new approach in bird feeding. As an artist, engineer and inventor, he cared about using quality materials and innovative design to create a feeder that birds loved and people found easy to use. Still a best seller, the functional simplicity of the A-6 preserves its place as the standard in the industry. |

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. |
