It’s made of high-density plastic to withstand inclement weather, and we only found a few reports of rust and defects.

There are four feeding ports on this tube feeder, and it can hold up to five pounds of birdseed. The larger capacity means less frequent filling, however, it will need to be charged regularly. To prevent it from fading in the sun, the tube is made of UV-stabilized polycarbonate. It has a metal perching ring at its base, which allows birds to comfortably feed, along with a metal cap to protect the birdseed from rain. As well as being a good shape and size, turning a pumpkin into a bird feeder is lots of fun. Children (and adults) will love to get hands-on with the whole process, from scooping out to filling and hanging.
