Woodlink GGFLYTHRU Going Green Fly-Thru Feeder

Invite a Wide Variety of Michigan Songbirds to Dine Under Cover!

Attract everything from the vibrant Northern Cardinal to the elusive Evening Grosbeak with the Woodlink GGFLYTHRU Going Green Fly-Thru Feeder. This open-access platform feeder is a favorite for Michigan birders because it accommodates birds of all sizes—especially those ground-feeders that struggle with small perches. Crafted from 90% post-consumer recycled plastic, this eco-friendly station is built to endure the diverse and often harsh Great Lakes climate.

• Generous Open Design: The "fly-thru" layout allows birds to enter and exit from any direction, making them feel safe and comfortable. The large green roof provides a substantial shelter, protecting both your guests and their food from sudden Michigan rain showers or heavy lake-effect snow.
• Versatile Feeding Platform: This generously sized tray can hold up to 1.75 lbs of seed. Its open design is perfect for offering a wide menu beyond standard seed, including fruit, suet, mealworms, or whole peanuts to attract a broader variety of avian visitors.
• Superior Aeration & Drainage: Equipped with a green, powder-coated perforated metal screen base, this feeder ensures water drains away instantly. This keeps your seed dry and fresh, preventing the spoilage and mold that often occur during our damp, humid Michigan springs.
• Mitten-Proof Durability: Proudly Made in the USA, the recycled plastic construction is incredibly sturdy and will not absorb moisture, harbor bacteria, or crack and rot over time.

🧤 Backyard Birds: Michigan Pro-Tips 🧤

• The Cardinal's Choice: Many of our favorite Michigan residents, like the Northern Cardinal, are ground-feeders that prefer a flat surface to stand on while eating. By providing this platform-style station, you'll see a dramatic increase in Cardinal activity compared to narrow tube feeders.
• Winter "Snow Plow" Strategy: During heavy snow, larger birds like Mourning Doves often act as "snow plows," kicking fresh snow out of the tray to reach the seed. This effort actually benefits smaller Michigan birds like Juncos and Sparrows who follow behind to find clear food.
• Humidity Defense: In the height of our humid July and August, seed in open trays can clump. Pro-Tip: The metal mesh bottom is your best friend here—every few days, give the tray a quick shake to ensure airflow continues to reach the bottom layer of seed.
• Pole Mounting for Success: This feeder is designed for pole or post mounting. In Michigan, we recommend mounting it on a sturdy pole with a squirrel baffle at least 10 feet away from any "launchpad" branches to keep local raccoons and squirrels from raiding the buffet.
