This one was designed to belong in a garden. The seed hopper holds 2.5 litres and gently refills the tray as the birds feed, so a fill lasts. Drainage holes in the tray stop seed going to mush after rain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe front face is matte rather than gloss — a small detail that matters, because a glossy panel reflects, and in spring a territorial robin will attack its own reflection rather than eat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSquirrels: handled\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn most of Britain, feeding the birds means feeding at least one squirrel. The BirdView Pro ships with a metal perch fitted that will take a chunkier visitor without bending, and the refill lid can be screwed shut so it can't be levered off. If squirrels aren't your problem, swap in the wider plastic perch included in the box — it gives the birds more room to queue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAlerts when you want them, quiet when you don't\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurn motion alerts on and your phone buzzes each time something lands.

The roof panel trickle-charges the internal battery, and a reasonably open position keeps it topped up year-round.

If the bird is half-hidden behind the feeder or shot from an odd angle, it can hedge.
