More Information
Summary:A bird feeder 10 is provided having a seed reservoir 12 with a side wall 14 that has at least one seed access opening 20 and an adjustable feed port assembly 22. The feed port assembly includes a base 24 mounted to the side wall in a fixed relationship thereto and having a central opening 26 in communication with the seed in the reservoir. Fitted to the base is a rotatable insert 28 having a perch (52, Fig 3a) coupled thereto in fixed relationship so that the perch and insert rotate as a unit. The insert is rotatable between two positions, an upright position in which the perch is below the base central opening enabling birds to feed while standing on the perch, and an upside down position in which the perch is above the base central opening, requiring birds to hang upside down from the perch to feed.
