A bit of a long shot,but does anyone know where I can buy a feeder like the one in the picture. I've had it in the shed for years and only decided to try it recently for the sunflower hearts. As you can see it works really well and can accommodate up to 10 birds at a time. I've tried upteen web sites without any luck. I really could do with a second one as we can get well into double figures of Goldfinch in the garden and it would save me having to fill up the smaller feeders all the time.

It is recommended to clean bird feeders once a week or less using a mild cleansing solution.

Could I just remind everyone who feeds the birds in their garden to please clean their feeders occasionally especially with all the cases of bird flu about. I take mine down about every 4 weeks and put them in a bucket of warm water and bleach to sterilise them. The cases of bird flu are quite widespread with wild geese dying and recently in s.w. Scotland cases of both Buzzard and Red Kite dying from it,presumably after eating carrion in the form of dead birds that have already succumbed to the disease.
