Our Window feeder, hand made from recycled British roofing slate, is one of Slate and Nature’s most popular products. Over the last few years, worldwide, over 3000 windows are transformed into a bird display. This specially designed feeder, is slowly conquering the world, from Tokyo Japan, Johannesburg Africa, Missouri USA, to Finland, Turkey etc. Nationally and internationally appreciated and enjoyed to watch and observe your feathered friends from close by. It has become a wonderful gift for your birds, your self, friends and family, no-matter what age, gender or who you are… everybody likes it.
Our 2000th Window feeder went to Monty Don who responded with;
‘This a great design, I already know where to put it!’
In September 2016 our Window feeder was featured in ‘Escape to the Country’, just follow the link and go to minute 16 and see how the window feeder is been made:
