No slender feeding tubes here either, rats and squirrels decimate them. We have a rather unsightly upsidedown bucket underneath the bird table as a cowl to stop vermin climbing the pole. Used to put tubes of sunflower hearts out for goldfinches but if we do these day the sparrow thugs finish it off in hours, hence no goldfinches anymore
