This is excellent, I got a feeder, seed tray, and rain cover in one deliver to use as a set. This new feeder with tray is significantly more popular than the old feeder we had as there is just so much more room for the birds to perch. I’ve adjusted the rain cover height to prevent pigeon raiding, the pigeons are so clever they came up with a way of balancing sideways on the feeder tray with their body resting against the feeder, one wing sticking up around the rain away and one wing sticking horizontally out. Pulling the rain away down about a centimetre means they can’t fit their body in the gap and contort their wing around it any more. I’m thinking of getting a nut feeder with one of these so I hope the diameter of the feeder is the same.

During the last 4 weeks we have had a lot of rain - I have two feeders both fitted with Rain Aways. The remaining seeds each day are always dry and loose so the hats work! Also they often discourage our squirrels - not much to hold onto.

After a bit of a struggle to fit it, not helped by arthritic fingers, I was delighted to find that it works. It stops the rain running down the sides of the feeder and seeping in around the perches. No soggy food in bottom of feeder and protection for birds like the finches, who like to sit and feed. Disappointed to find that the product is not available, as I wished to buy for other feeders.
