Subject: Advice on Window Bird Feeders
Hello!

I recently thought it would be awesome to install a bird feeder on my
apartment window so I can see birds while I work at my desk. I'm wondering
if anyone has advice on good window bird feeders, as I've never bought
a bird feeder before. Some requirements:

- It will attach to a glass window with suction cups
- I plan to use black sunflower seeds, targeting common songbirds
(chickadee, nuthatch, titmouse, etc)
- It doesn't need to be large since I will refill it daily (gets me to
go outside!)
- It should be clear since it will be above me and I want to see the
birds clearly
- It's rainy/windy here in State College, so it should have a roof and
drainage holes
- Since I'm using sunflower seeds that will make a mess, there needs to
be an easy way to dump out the seed shells without detaching the suction
cups. Ideally the feeder can be detached without detaching the suction cups
so I can also easily clean it

I'm currently looking at something like this:

Any advice or tips are greatly appreciated!
