Systems and methods for facilitating seed feeder filling

A method for easy filling a bird feeder, the method comprising:

• receiving a depression of a release button on a cap assembly connected to a body at a proximal end, the body defining a reservoir, the cap assembly having a cap opening providing access to the reservoir;
• releasing a lid of the cap assembly at a first side upon the depression of the release button;
• moving the lid from a closed position to an open position using a bias of a spring assembly upon the release of the lid, the lid moving from the closed position to the open position along a rotation path created by a hinge at a second side, the lid held in the open position by the spring bias, the open position providing access to the reservoir through the cap opening;
• and
• receiving birdseed through the cap opening into the reservoir.

A birdseed tote comprising:

• a pair of opposing sidewalls each extending from a distal end to a proximal end and between a front end and a back end;
• a distal surface connecting the distal ends of the pair of opposing side walls;
• a back wall connecting the back ends of the pair of opposing side walls;
• a neck extending from the front ends of the pair of opposing side walls, the pair of opposing sidewalls, the back wall, the distal surface, and the neck forming a tote body configured to hold birdseed, the tote body having a proximal edge extending along a plane, the neck including a neck surface extending along a contour from the distal surface to a spout, an axis line of the spout extending parallel to the plane of the proximal edge of the tote body, the neck surface shaped to direct the birdseed from the distal surface through an opening in the spout without an orientation of the plane extending past a perpendicular angle to a target.
