A:  We do not recommend shortening the hanging wire.

A:  No  not unless you make your own knot in the line which would hinder refilling the feeder

A:  This feeder has not been tested for use with seed blocks.

A:  ABSOLUTELY NOT...

A:  The seed does stay dry but I admit, the lid could be alittle bit longer! The seed does get alittle wet as it comes out the bottom but not much. I dont have any issues with mine.

A:  Yes. Of course, if you get a wind-driven rain all bets are off. But that would apply to pretty much all of the bird feeders that I own anyway!

A:  This feeder should help to keep your seed dry, however if you notice that it becomes frequently wet with the varying weather conditions, we recommend placing the feeder in a protected area.
