Abstract: A bird feeder perch assembly comprising a flange and a perch rod with at least one pivot member located at a distal end; the pivot members extending axially along an axis in a direction generally perpendicular to the perch rod; where the flange has an attachment that allow it to be attached to the side wall of a bird feeder body; the flange comprising an underside portion that in use is in direct contact with said side wall of a bird feeder body; the flange having at least one recess in the underside and an aperture therethrough located adjacent the recess or between the recesses; the aperture and recess being configured to accept the perch member; a pivot member being housed within the recess and the perch rod extending through the slot, such that in use the perch member may pivot, from a retracted position in which the perch is alongside the feeder body to an extended position in which the perch projects outwardly from the body.

Abstract: A bird feeder port, especially suited for dispensing fine sized birdseed and configured for insertion through an exterior wall of a bird feeder; the port comprising a feed distributor with an open front portion accessible to a bird and in addition having at least an upper portion and a lower portion; said lower portion having an aperture in the lowermost floor portion through which bird seed is in use presented and can be eaten by a feeding bird. The aperture preferably comprises a slot and has a width of between 5 and 13 mm.

Abstract: A wire cage birdfeeder including a first cage member and a second cage member; the first and second cage members being pivotally connected such that when the feeder is in a closed position the first and second cage members are substantially flush with one another so forming a closed cage; and when in an open position the cage members are partly separated so presenting a filling mouth and further including a closer/hanger that when in a first position allows the first and second cage members to pivot open to present a mouth for charging and when in a closed position prevent such opening.

Abstract: A bird feeder port having a front face with a feeding aperture, a side wall or walls, a rear face and a connection mechanism provided to allow the rear face of two identical bird feeder ports to be connected back to back. The connection mechanism includes a post extending outwardly from the rear face and having a sideways extending engagement portion at the distal end. The rear face has an aperture proximal the post, and an engagement edge integral with the rear face positioned on the inside of this aperture. In use the engagement portion of one port may engage the engagement edge of another identical port.

Abstract: A bird feeder hanger having a main body with at least one suction cup attached thereto and further including at least one arm that extends from the front face or side walls of the main body and in use engages an aperture or grid mesh hole of a conventional tubular bird feeder body using a snap-fit engagement.

Abstract: A bird feeder perch assembly for removable attachment to a bird feeder, the assembly having a locating member for locating and removably engaging a body of the bird feeder, a perch and pivoting mechanism for allowing the perch to pivot relative to the locating member, such that in use when attached to a bird feeder body the perch may pivot from a retracted position in which it is substantially flush with the bird feeder body to an extended position in which the perch projects outwardly from the bird feeder body such that a bird may rest upon the perch.

Abstract: A bird feeder hanger assembly having a pivot member adapted to be pivotably attached to the main body of a bird feeder; the pivot member having engaging means comprising a slot or the like; a hanger member also having engaging means configured to co-operate with the first member engaging means such that when connecting the assembly to the main body of a bird feeder the hanger member can first be pushed into the slot of the pivot member and then pulled along an axis of the slot so that the engaging means of the hanger member and the engaging means of the pivot member mutually engage.

Abstract: A bird feeder perch assembly comprising a locating member, a perch and pivoting means that allows the perch to pivot relative to the locating means; such that in use when attached to a bird feeder body the perch may pivot from a retracted position in which it is substantially flush with the body to an extended position in which it projects outwardly from the body such that a bird may rest upon it; the locating member may form part of a bird feeder port flange.

Abstract: A bird feeding accessory comprising a collet, having a collar with a threaded cap, the collar housing a resilient sleeve; wherein the threaded cap may be tightened around a variety of resilient sleeves, each sleeve being adapted to grip a rod of varying size by use of a slit in the sleeve and co-operating tapered sections in the collar and sleeve.

Abstract: A bird feeder comprising a body for housing bird seed and a perch or perches for a bird, attached to the body, each perch having at least one aperture in the body proximal to said perch wherein the aperture is above and offset to one side or the other of said perch.
