  • Patent number: 8479678
    Abstract: A bird repelling apparatus to repel birds from plants including a hanger, a round eyelet on a hanger second end, an initial ring loosely attached thereto, a thin diameter greater than 3 inches and 2 gauge thick first disc with a 0.2 inch diameter top aperture attached to the initial ring and a bottom aperture to which a round 0.75 inch diameter first memory wire ring is loosely engaged, and a 0.4 inch diameter jump ring loosely engaging the first memory wire ring. A second memory wire ring loosely engages the jump ring and a 0.2 inch diameter second disc upper aperture and has a 0.2 inch diameter lower aperture. The dimensions and the high gloss finish of the stainless steel discs are critical to the bird repelling function. Loose connectivity between the jump and memory wire rings and the discs provides liberal, relatively independent and unimpeded disc movement in a slight breeze.
