Offer seed to several bird varieties with this Droll Yankees Yankee Flipper Squirrel Proof Bird Feeder. This fantastically popular feeder perfectly holds plenty of mixed seed for your feathered friends. The lengthy, UV stabilized reservoir holds 3.33 quarts of mixed seed, with 4 ports and a perch ring at its base. This ring has a battery powered rotation that reacts to the weight of a gray squirrel, providing you hours of interesting activity. Once a large squirrel or bird puts its full weight on the perch, an internal motor rotates it, which assists the animal in exiting the feeder. The hardy, die cast metal construction of this base and perch ring matches that of the cap, and the deep green, powder coated finish adds longevity. The snug cap keeps the seed protected from rain, and the powerstick inside the reservoir acts as a diverter, directing feed to the ports. The extra long feeding tube also prevents squirrels from hanging on the lid and grabbing seed, and the clear polycarbonate body keeps feed levels visible. An on/off switch at the base of the unit allows you to operate it only when desired, and an included AC adapter makes recharging the mechanism simple. This multitude of features has made the Yankee Flipper a classic, durable, and favorite addition to bird gardens everywhere. A robust looped, stainless steel top wire makes hanging the piece simple, offering stability and security. Discourage squirrels from dining while adding some fun to your backyard with the Yankee Flipper Squirrel Proof Bird Feeder. Two year limited warranty on feeder. One year limited warranty on motor and battery.

The Yankee Flipper works well to prevent access by grey squirrels; however, red squirrels and chipmunks are not heavy enough to activate the perch ring. If red squirrels are coming to your feeders, we suggest the Yankee Whipper or Yankee Dipper.

    This is our third feeder. We love to see it “beat” the squirrels.

    Undoubtedly the best bird feeder ever if you have squirrels any where near you. The birds get to feed and the squirrels get the ride of their life. Watched a squirrel one time go around about 25 times. They don’t get hurt and you get real entertainment watching them and the birds.

    Awesome feeder, a much better design than the original Flipper. Easy to clean, holds lots of seed, but would like the feeder to stand on its own to fill. Please fix that flaw and you will get 5 stars from me. Of course, the squirrels have marred the top trying to get in, so let’s go stainless steel, please.
