Rspb Metal Ground Feeder

The RSPB Metal Ground Feeder is a robust and reliable feeding solution, expertly designed to support a variety of ground-feeding garden birds. Crafted from durable powder-coated steel, this feeder is made to withstand outdoor conditions while delivering high-performance functionality.

Equipped with drainage holes, the feeder ensures that bird food stays dry and fresh, reducing waste and helping to maintain hygiene. It’s ideal for dispensing ground seed mixes, suet pellets, dried mealworms, and other soft foods — perfect for soft-billed species.

With its low-profile design, this feeder encourages natural feeding behaviour and is especially attractive to species like blackbirds, robins, wrens, and song thrushes. Its open, accessible style allows easy entry for a wide range of birds while deterring larger, more dominant species from monopolising food.

Backed by the trusted RSPB brand, 100% of profits from this product support bird and wildlife conservation efforts across the UK.
