Looks good. But I think it would not work that good where I come from.
The roof seems to be a bit small for heavy rain.

The bottom should be declining from back to front, otherwise you have a pile of birds food which does not come out. But that can be fixed before first usage. It also helps to keep the food dry.

How do you plan to mount it?

I have a plywood sloping base that you can take out for easier cleaning its not in the image though.
The roof is fine for rain and is held on by velcro and the acrylic slides out again for cleaning purposes.
Ive not decided how to mount it yet. I might just cut some plywood or aluminium brackets or hooks for it unless you have any ideas.

I don't know the situation at your place. Depending on that I'd either build a tripod to mount it on, or build a wooden hook which is mounted on a tree. But that also depends on wheather you have a lot of cats. Then it might be better to think about a solution where the feeder hangs down from a branch.

Decisions ... decisions ... :lol:
