A bird feeder, comprising:
- a food container including one or more feeding ports configured to allow birds access into said food container;
- and
- a separate perch located relative to each feeding port to enable a bird perched thereon to access a respective feeding port, each of the separate perches being elongated and rotationally mounted at one end to move in a radial direction with respect to a longitudinal axis of said food container so as to have an adjustable distance from a respective feeding port.
A bird feeder, comprising:
- a food container including one or more feeding ports configured to allow birds access into said food container, said food container having a substantially vertical orientation;
- and
- an adjustable perch located relative to each of the feeding ports that enables a bird perched thereon to access a respective feeding port, each of the perches being elongated and rotationally mounted at one end to move in a radial direction with respect to a longitudinal axis of said food container and being curved in said radial direction of rotational movement with respect to said food container so as to be radially positionable relative to the respective feeding port.
A bird feeder, comprising:
- a food container including one or more feeding ports configured to allow birds access into said food container, said food container having a generally cylindrical shape and a substantially vertical axial orientation;
- and
- an adjustable perch located relative to each of the feeding ports that enables a bird perched thereon to access a respective feeding port, each of the separate perches being elongated and rotationally mounted at one end to move outward and inward in a radial direction with respect to a longitudinal axis of said food container to provide an adjustable perch distance from a respective feeding port for accommodating different sized birds.
