- COMPACT DESIGN FOR TAILORED BIRD FEEDING
- TRULY SQUIRREL-PROOF: Openings in the shroud align with the feeding ports, providing birds access to the food. When a squirrel climbs onto the feeder, its weight automatically forces the shroud down, closing access to the ports. Squirrels and some large birds are foiled but not harmed in any way
- PAYS FOR ITSELF IN SAVED SEED: Squirrels can no longer steal your wild bird seed. Over a short period of time this adds up to substantial savings that will pay for the purchase of your feeder
- RECOMMENDED BIRD FOOD: Black oil sunflower or/and safflower seeds
- LIFETIME CARE: This is how we support you and our planet. Should you need a part covered under our warranty, we will provide it for free to extend the life of our products, and shipping is on us. The future of the planet must be linked to the vision of products made to last. Please call us for advice or help, a real person will be happy to answer
- FOR BOTH PERCHING & CLINGING BIRDS: The seed ports have perches for perching birds and the wire shroud provides a surface area for clinging birds. This increases your bird traffic
- WEIGHT ADJUSTABLE: Patented weight adjustable spring mechanism controls how much weight the shroud will support allowing the birds to feed. Any additional weight will activate the closing mechanism
- CHEW PROOF: All feeder parts exposed to squirrels are made with chew proof materials
- ETACHABLE COMPONENT SYSTEM: designed to be dismantled by hand into individual components without the use of tools. This allows for easy cleaning and maintenance
- SEED TUBE VENTILATION: Transparent seed tubes trap solar energy. Conventional seed tube designs block the escape of the heated air. Our patented Seed Tube Ventilation permits humidity and hot air to escape through vents at the top of the feeder and replaces it with fresh air. Bird food remains fresher, attracting more wild birds

There’s a bird feeder specifically made to fend off squirrels. I don’t remember what it was called.
Edit: found it!!

Throw up a bird feeder (I highly recommend Brome, they’re pricey but you make up for it by preventing the squirrels from raiding your seeds) and throw Safflower (it’s the favorite of Cardinals and Res Bellied Woodpeckers will eat it as well). There are alternatives seeds you can try, but if they’re too attractive to Grackles (black birds), you will have 50 of them and 0 of everything else.

They have squirrel resistant bird feeders. https://smile.amazon.com/Squirrel-Buster-Standard-Perches-Capacity/dp/B00ABGSX4S/ref=sr_1_4?s=lawn-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1527803457&sr=1-4&keywords=squirrel+proof+bird+feeders
This is my feeder. There is another version where you can adjust the weight that it allows to keep grackles and starlings out but that would keep wood peckers out too. There isn't much you can do for house sparrows since they're the same size as the other birds you're trying to attract. Whatever you do, don't put out millet. That's their favorite food and it will attract flocks of them. I don't get too many with just the sunflower seeds. If you're getting flocks now, maybe you could try not putting out food at all for a while so those birds can move on and find a different food source.
