Welcome Michigan’s Tropical Travelers in Vibrant Style!
There’s no surer sign that a Michigan spring has finally arrived than the flash of a Baltimore Oriole in the budding maples. The Audubon WLO1 Classic Oriole Feeder is the ultimate welcome mat for these orange-and-black beauties. Designed as a complete "all-in-one" buffet, this bright orange feeder offers every treat an oriole craves after their long journey from Central America to the Great Lakes.
- The Full Buffet Menu: This feeder doesn't make you choose. It features a 12 oz nectar reservoir with 4 feeding ports, 4 built-in jelly wells for grape jam, and a center spike perfect for half an orange.
- Built-in Ant Defense: We know Michigan summers bring out the ants. This feeder features a built-in center moat—simply fill it with water to create a natural barrier that keeps crawling pests out of your sweet nectar and jelly.
- Mitten-Weather Durable: Constructed from high-impact, UV-stabilized orange plastic, this feeder won't fade in the sun or crack during a sudden May frost.
- Easy-Clean Design: Orioles can be messy eaters! This feeder is top-rack dishwasher safe and comes apart easily, ensuring you can keep it sanitary for your feathered guests all season long.
🧤 Backyard Birds: Michigan Pro-Tips 🧤
- The "Tax Day" Target: In Southern Michigan, aim to have this feeder out by April 15th to April 25th. Orioles are "early birds"—if your feeder isn't ready when the first scouts arrive, they might skip your yard for a neighbor's!
- The Spring Energy Boost: When they first arrive in Michigan, orioles are exhausted and crave high-energy sugar. Pro-Tip: Start heavy on the grape jelly and fresh oranges in May. As the weather warms and nesting begins in June, they will transition more toward the nectar and protein-rich insects.
- Beat the Michigan "Bullies": If you find that Gray Catbirds or Robins are hogging the jelly, try hanging this feeder in a more open area. Orioles are bolder and will fly to an exposed feeder, while Catbirds often prefer to stay closer to the cover of thick Michigan shrubs.
- Nectar Recipe: Don't waste money on "orange dyed" nectar. Mix 1 part plain white sugar with 4 parts boiling water. Let it cool completely before filling. The bright orange plastic of the WLO1 is all the "color" you need to catch their eye!.
- Model: 25018 / WLO1
- Capacity: 12 oz Nectar; 4 Jelly Stations; 1 Orange Half.
- Dimensions: 8.75" W x 8.75" D x 2" H.
- Included: Brass hanging rod and built-in ant moat.
If you want to be the talk of the local birding community, the Audubon WLTUBE35
- 20 Feeding Stations: Perfect for those high-traffic Michigan mornings when a massive wave of goldfinches or siskins descends on your yard. With 20 ports, you’ll see more activity and less territorial bickering.
- Heavy-Duty Capacity: Holds a whopping 4 lbs of Nyjer (thistle) seed. This extra-large reservoir is a lifesaver during a Michigan "Deep Freeze," drastically reducing your trips out into the snow for refills.
- Michigan-Proof Construction: Features a shatterproof polycarbonate tube that stays flexible and clear from -20°F to 90°F. The powder-coated die-cast metal top, base, and perches are built to resist rust and squirrel damage for years.
- Easy Maintenance: The metal roof lifts off easily for quick cleaning and filling, while the internal baffle ensures seed flows all the way to the bottom ports, preventing stale "dead zones" at the base.
🧤 Backyard Birds: Michigan Pro-Tips 🧤
- The "Lake-Effect" Lean: When fully loaded with 4 lbs of seed, this 35-inch feeder is heavy and catches a lot of wind. Pro-Tip: Do not hang this from a simple suction cup or a flimsy shepherd's hook. We recommend a heavy-duty pole system or a 10-inch "S" hook over a thick maple or oak branch to keep it steady during our stiff Michigan winds.
- Preventing "Tube Mold": Because of the 35-inch depth, moisture can sometimes get trapped at the bottom during our damp Michigan springs. To keep your finches healthy, we recommend using a Seed Catch Tray to help with stability and always tapping the side of the tube to keep the seed loose and flowing.
- Irruptive Winter Visitors: Keep your camera ready! During "irruption years," Michigan sees rare northern visitors like Common Redpolls and Pine Siskins. These birds travel in massive groups and specifically seek out high-capacity 20-port feeders like this one to feed together for safety.
- Seed Freshness: With a 4 lb capacity, make sure your birds are eating through the seed within 1–2 weeks. If activity slows down, only fill the tube halfway to ensure the thistle stays fresh and oil-rich, as finches will ignore dried-out or "stale" seed.
- Model: 24576/WLTUBE35
- Dimensions: 35" Tall x 5.5" Diameter
- Ports: 20 metal-reinforced feeding stations.
- Material: Polycarbonate tube with powder-coated die-cast metal hardware.
When the finches are in full swing, you need a feeder that can keep up. The Woodlink WLTUBE22 is our "jumbo" solution for serious finch fans. Its bright yellow accents act as a natural beacon for goldfinches, letting them know your yard is the best "Up North" stop for a meal. At nearly two feet tall, this feeder is designed to handle the heavy traffic of a successful Michigan birding station.
- 12 Feeding Stations: Why settle for a few visitors when you can have the whole flock? With 12 ports, there’s plenty of room for American Goldfinches, Pine Siskins, and Redpolls to dine together without the usual "peck-order" bickering.
- Massive Thistle Capacity: Holds approximately 1.75 lbs of Nyjer (thistle) seed. This extra-large reservoir is a lifesaver during a Michigan winter, meaning you won’t have to head out into the snow as often for refills.
- All-Weather Durability: Features a UV-stabilized polycarbonate tube that won't yellow in the sun or crack during a 10°F February night. The cap, base, and perches are made of sturdy metal to withstand the elements and local pests.
- Smart Feed-Out Design: The internal baffle directs seed to the lowest ports, ensuring the feeder empties completely so you don't end up with stale, damp seed stuck at the bottom.
🧤 Backyard Birds: Michigan Pro-Tips 🧤
- The "Yellow Beacon" Effect: Goldfinches are highly visual. In the spring, when they are sporting their bright yellow breeding plumage, they are naturally drawn to this feeder's yellow cap and base. It’s like a neon "Open" sign for your yard!
- Lake-Effect Humidity: Michigan’s damp weather can cause tiny thistle seeds to clump. Pro-Tip: Because this tube is 22 inches long, give it a firm "Michigan tap" on the side whenever you walk by to keep the seed loose and flowing to all 12 ports.
- Winter Redpoll Rareness: Keep an eye out during extra-cold winters! When food is scarce in Canada, "irruptive" species like Common Redpolls fly down to Michigan. They love these 12-port feeders because they prefer feeding in large, social groups.
- Hygiene is Key: With 12 birds feeding at once, cleanliness is vital. We recommend a deep clean every two weeks during our rainy Michigan springs to prevent the spread of finch eye infections. The easy-lift metal cap makes it simple to scrub the interior.
- Model: 24575/WLTUBE22
- Dimensions: 2.5" Diameter x 21.5" Height
- Ports: 12 reinforced metal feeding stations
- Material: Shatterproof polycarbonate and heavy-duty metal hardware

- Michigan-Tough Durability: Crafted from UV-stabilized, unbreakable polycarbonate, this tray is built to survive Great Lakes winters without cracking or yellowing.
- Keep Seed Fresh: Built-in drainage holes ensure that rain and melting snow drain away, preventing seed spoilage and mold.
- Universal Compatibility: Designed to fit all Aspects 2.75" diameter tube feeders (except the Big Tube series) using a simple threaded mounting system.
- Effortless Maintenance: The tray detaches quickly without tools, making it easy to scrub down and keep your feeding station healthy.
- Made in the USA: Backed by the Aspects Lifetime Guarantee.
- The "Dove Hack": If larger birds like doves are hogging the tray and blocking the ports, add a 1/2-inch threaded extension (available at most local hardware stores) to drop the tray 6 inches lower. This lets ground-feeders eat from the tray while songbirds keep their spots at the ports.
- Winter Maintenance: After a typical Michigan "snow-dump," give the tray a quick tap from below. This clears the drainage holes and keeps the seed dry as it thaws.
- Weekly "Healthy Bird" Scrub: To prevent the spread of avian diseases, we recommend a weekly cleaning. Use a solution of one part bleach to nine parts hot water. Scrub, rinse thoroughly, and let it air dry completely before reattaching.
- Attract More Cardinals: Cardinals love to feed in pairs. The extra perching space on this 8.5" tray allows a male and female to dine together, which they often won't do on cramped individual perches.
Keep your bird seed dry and your feathered friends sheltered with the Aspects 281 Tube Top. Living in Michigan, we know the weather can change in a heartbeat. The Tube Top is a must-have accessory for any backyard birder looking to protect their investment.
Smart Design, No Hassle
Featuring Aspects' ingenious, patented design, this 12-inch clear dome protects all Aspects 2-3/4" tubes from rain and snow. The best part? The Tube Top simply slips over the bail wire and rests on the feeder's cap—no hardware needed! It’s a seamless addition that upgrades your feeding station in seconds.
Why We Love It at Backyard Birds:
-
Weatherproof Construction: Made of heavy-duty, UV-stabilized polycarbonate that won't yellow or crack in the Michigan sun or winter freeze.
-
Seed Savings: Directs water away from feeder ports to prevent clogging, clumping, and wasted bird food.
-
Bird-Friendly Shelter: Provides a dry landing zone for smaller songbirds, encouraging them to stay longer even during a drizzle.
-
Made in the USA: High-quality craftsmanship backed by a lifetime guarantee.
Pro-Tips from Backyard Birds:
-
The "Stay-Dry" Hack: For the best results, ensure the dome is centered. This creates an even "drip line" that directs water away from the feeding perches.
-
Winter Maintenance: In the winter, if ice builds up on the dome, a quick tap with a wooden spoon usually clears it right off without scratching the polycarbonate.

Give your birds the ultimate "porch" with the Super Tube Top II. When a standard dome isn't enough for those brutal Michigan storms, the Aspects 351 steps up. With a massive 14-inch diameter, this heavy-duty clear dome offers maximum protection for your largest tube feeders, keeping seed dry and birds sheltered even in high winds.
Patented, Effortless Design
Just like its smaller cousin, the Super Tube Top II features Aspects' ingenious, patented design. It protects all Aspects 2-3/4" and 3-1/2" diameter tubes from rain and snow with zero hassle. The dome simply slips over the bail wire and rests on the feeder's cap—no hardware, nuts, or bolts needed!
Why the "Super" Version is a Michigan Favorite:
-
Maximum Coverage: The 14-inch diameter offers 2 extra inches of overhang, ensuring even the bottom perches stay dry during lake-effect snow.
-
Superior Durability: Constructed from extra-thick, UV-stabilized polycarbonate. It’s built to survive ice storms without cracking or yellowing.
-
The "Big Bird" Deterrent: The wider diameter makes it even harder for squirrels and larger "bully" birds to reach down to the feeding ports from above.
-
Crystal Clear Optics: Enjoy an unobstructed view of your Cardinals and Woodpeckers while they dine in the dry.
Backyard Birds Pro-Tips:
-
The "Deep Freeze" Check: Because this dome is larger, it catches more snow. After a heavy Michigan snowfall, give it a gentle nudge from below to clear the weight and keep your feeder hanging straight.
-
Best Pairing: We highly recommend the Super Tube Top II for the Aspects Big & Tall or Extra Large tube feeders. It’s the only dome that truly scales up to those larger capacities.

Patented, Ingenious Design
True to the Aspects mission of simplicity, this tray features an ingenious, patented design. It attaches to your feeder simply and quickly—no complex hardware required! It simply screws into the base of the feeder and comes with a decorative finial included for a polished, high-end look.
Why Every Michigan Backyard Needs One:

Universal Fit: This 10-inch tray fits all Aspects' tube feeders, making it the most versatile accessory in your birding kit.
-
Saves Money: Catches "discarded" seed before it hits the ground, preventing waste and reducing the mess under your feeder.

All-Weather Drainage: Built-in drainage holes ensure that rainwater doesn't collect, keeping the caught seed dry and fresh.
Backyard Birds Pro-Tips:
-
Cardinal Favorite: If you find your Cardinals are hovering but not landing, add this tray! The extra perching surface gives them the stability they need to feel secure while feeding.
-
Cleaning is a Breeze: Because it unscrews so easily, we recommend giving it a quick rinse every time you refill your feeder to keep the drainage holes clear of debris.

Protect your birds from Michigan's unpredictable weather!
The Aspects 182 Super Dome is the ultimate heavy-duty shield for your backyard feeding station. This massive 18-inch diameter baffle provides a dual-threat defense: it keeps squirrels from raiding your feeders from above and acts as a giant umbrella to keep seed bone-dry during heavy rain or a classic Great Lakes snowstorm.
Crafted from crystal-clear, UV-stabilized polycarbonate, this dome offers a front-row seat to the action while remaining virtually indestructible. Its smooth, slippery surface ensures that even the most determined squirrels slide right off before they can reach the snacks below.
Product Specifications:
- Dimensions: 18" Diameter x 6" Height.
- Weight: Approximately 2.34 lbs.
- Material: High-impact, UV-stabilized polycarbonate (won't yellow or crack over time).
- Hardware: Includes solid stainless steel top and bottom hooks for easy hanging.
- Compatibility: Universal fit for any small to medium hanging bird feeder or birdhouse.
- Manufacturing: Proudly Made in the USA.
- Warranty: Aspects Lifetime Guarantee.
- The "Cardinal Cover": Many Michigan songbirds, like the Northern Cardinal, dislike getting wet. Adding this dome creates a dry "micro-climate" that encourages birds to stay and feed longer during light rain.
- Strategic Hanging: For maximum effectiveness, ensure the dome is hung at least 10 feet away from trees or porch railings. This prevents squirrels from leaping sideways under the dome to reach the feeder.
- Winter Maintenance: If we get a heavy ice storm, a quick tap to clear the dome will keep it lightweight and effective. Because it is polycarbonate, it won't crack in freezing temperatures.
- Visibility Check: The dome is crystal clear to allow for unobstructed viewing, but if you notice birds bumping into it, adding a small window-cling or decal to the top can help them navigate around it safely.
- Dimensions: 12" Diameters: High-impact, UV-stabilized clear polycarbonate (virtually indestructible).
- Hardware: Includes solid stainless steel hooks for secure hanging.
- Compatibility: Ideal for all Aspects Hummingbird feeders, Oriole feeders, and small tube or tray feeders.
- Manufacturing: Proudly Made in the USA.
- Warranty: Aspects Lifetime Guarantee
- Hummingbird Hero: In Michigan, we often get heavy afternoon downpours. This dome prevents rain from entering the ports of saucer-style hummingbird feeders, which stops the nectar from becoming diluted or fermenting too quickly.
- The "Ant Moat" Combo: For the ultimate hummingbird setup, hang an Ant Moat above this Weather Dome. The dome keeps the rain out of the feeder, while the moat keeps the crawling insects away.
- Baffle vs. Weather Guard: While this will discourage some smaller squirrels, its primary job is weather protection. If you have "Olympic" Michigan squirrels, we recommend moving up to the 18" Super Dome (Aspects 182).
- Cleaning Hack: To keep that crystal-clear view, wash the dome with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges to prevent micro-scratches on the polycarbonate.
Backyard bird feeding should be enjoyable in every season—even during rainy or snowy Michigan weather. The Fancy 14" Swirl Dome Bird Feeder Weather Guard helps protect your bird feeder from rain, snow, and wind while adding a decorative touch to your backyard feeding station.
This 14-inch clear dome acts as a protective shield that helps keep bird seed dry and fresh longer. By creating a sheltered feeding space, birds can comfortably enjoy your feeder even during rough weather.
The clear design allows you to continue watching your backyard visitors while the elegant swirl pattern adds a stylish accent to your feeder setup. When adjusted properly, the dome can also help discourage squirrels and larger birds from reaching the feeder below.
Whether you're feeding chickadees in the winter or watching finches and cardinals during warmer months, this dome helps keep your feeding station clean, dry, and inviting year-round.
