Don,

I had to give up on feeders. The squirrels wouldn't be outdone. I  
originally had mine about 8 feet sideways from a tree branch. Well  
they just flue over and landed on the little roof. Then I moved it to  
the center of the lawn. They would climb the small metal pole. I even  
greased the pole and that didn't help. I even put large frisbee type  
disks on the pole. That didn't help. I finally gave up. The only  
birds that came around would eat the seed droppings from the squirrels.

Good luck with your hawk. Take a picture of him.

Len
