Feed your songbirds, not the squirrels, with the Squirrel-X1 Squirrel-Resistant Bird Feeder from Classic Brands. When a squirrel climbs onto any of the four spring-loaded perches, the feeder's integrated design closes every feeding port at the same time. Lightweight songbirds keep eating while squirrels walk away empty-handed.

Squirrel-Resistant Feeding Tips
Placement
Hang the feeder at least 5 feet off the ground and 8 to 10 feet from branches, fences and roofs so squirrels cannot jump onto it from above.
Seed
Black oil sunflower and songbird blends are favorites for cardinals, chickadees and finches.
Cleaning
Empty old seed and clean the feeder every few weeks, especially after wet weather, to keep seed fresh and birds healthy.
