The Suet Saver Bird feeder does discourage some of the Grackles, but not all of them. The persistent ones still help themselves, but are slowed down by having to hang upside down. I plan to get more, as they are the best I've been able to find so far. The feeder is well constructed, easy to use, and appears to be very durable.

I the black birds still can grasp the cage at the base. I ran about a 3/4 inch piece of duct tape around the top part of the "cage" and that worked. Now there is no room for them to grab as they fly to to, but the small birds can manage it just fine.

I have lots of squirrels in my yard. I was hoping that this product would save my suet from these persistent animals. When the squirrel jumps and hangs on the metal screen, it comes off. It needs to slide into a plastic "grove" that prevents the screen from coming off.
