Synopsis
From Le Petit Chalet's Bright Group, the Town Hall Feeder is fashioned to look like an old fashioned town hall building complete with a clock tower and its own little birdhouse. Banner above the white door reads Town Hall. Black colored wooden shingles cover the roof, adding a charming look to the feeder and helping to protect the seed. The large reservoir holds 2 quarts of seed, and empties onto the feeder base from two slots at the bottom. A small wooden lip on the black tray prevents seed spillage, while two red perching rods on each side offer a place for birds to rest. Clock tower lifts for easy fill and care. The architectural detail of Le Petit Chalet’s birdhouses and feeders add unique beauty to any home. Reminiscent of quaint country cottages, Victorian houses, chapels and other charming buildings, Le Petit Chalet uses real wood, exterior water-based paint, with UV protection, and galvanized screws and nails for top-quality construction and long-lasting beauty. Le Petit Chalet birdhouses and feeders are also built with attention to the needs of birds with details like breathing and drainage holes, bird hole openings, space inside and distance from hole to floor researched and incorporated on every model. Climate and the elements will weather the house and change its appearance over time; however, weathering will add to the item's natural charm without compromising its function. Should you want to preserve the finish (paint), it is recommended to cover it with two to three coats of a water-based semi-gloss outdoor wood finish. You should expect that once left outside, the product will weather and require refinishing.
