Abstract
A bird feeder pole constructed from a ground post, and a swing arm. One end of the ground post is set into the ground, the other end has the swing arm rotatably attached to it. The swing arm includes leverage means on one side of the pivot and the bird feeder support on the other side of the pivot, which results in a balanced arrangement and gives the user added leverage and control when rotating the swing arm.
