Hi! I'm sorry if it seemed I was ignoring this question- I just saw it while looking for something else.
It's really very simple. The feeder is the drainage pan from a largish planter. I put various small dishes in it depending on what I'm feeding them. The camera is a Blink (usually on sale on Prime Day) and it's all sitting on shelf of a small wire rack out of reach of the dogs.
We get birds and squirrels.
Thanks so much for sharing your setup! I’m inspired! I love all the different bird songs in the background of your video!
You're welcome! I would love to have one of those Bird Buddy setups, but it's not in the budget. But the animals don't seem to mind. We get cardinals, sparrows, titmice, an occasional Jay. And mischievous squirrels. 🐿
@BrazenlyLiberal I love the drainage pan. I wish it were easy to find large, deep, rustic dishes that didn't cost an arm and leg. @QueenOfEverything

Go to any garden store and you can usually pick one up separate from the big planter it's meant to go under.

Here's Sadie today. The rains left the feeder looking a little messy, but she doesn't seem to care. I drilled drainage holes into the pan, but the pounding rain overwhelmed it
