Abstract: Implementations described and claimed herein involve an easy fill bird feeding system. In one implementation, a depression is received of a release button on a cap assembly connected to a body defining a reservoir. The cap assembly has a cap opening providing access to the reservoir. A lid of the cap assembly is released at a first side upon the depression of the release button. The lid is moved from a closed position to an open position using a bias of a spring assembly upon the release of the lid. The lid moves from the closed position to the open position along a rotation path created by a hinge at a second side. The lid is held in the open position by the spring bias, and the open position provides access to the reservoir through the cap opening. Birdseed is received through the cap opening into the reservoir.

Abstract: Implementations described and claimed herein provide a bird feeder finial assembly. In one implementation, a bird feeder includes a finial having a finial body. The finial has a longitudinal axis. A swivel surface is disposed on the finial body, and a neck extends distally from the finial body along the longitudinal axis. The swivel has a swivel body with a proximal surface and a distal surface. A swivel opening is defined in the swivel body. The neck extends through the swivel opening, and the swivel body is translatable along the neck. A hanger is connected to the swivel body. The swivel body translates along the neck towards the first swivel surface into a swivel position when a suspending force is applied to the hanger, and the finial freely is rotatable about the longitudinal axis independent of the hanger when the swivel body is in the swivel position.

Abstract: A birdseed dispenser and birdfeeder incorporating the same are provided. The dispenser has a base assembly mounted to a first opening formed in the sidewall of the birdseed reservoir, including a front plate having a second opening formed therein, a flange extending around the second opening and projecting away from the front plate, and an end wall supported by the flange such that the flange and end wall together define a chamber. The dispenser also includes an apertured piece received in the chamber having a first seed aperture of a first configuration and a second seed aperture of a different configuration. The apertured piece is moveable between a first orientation, which places the first seed aperture in a seed accessible state permitting birds access to the seed, and a second orientation to place the second seed aperture in the seed accessible state.

Abstract: Generating a unique client configuration unit (CCU) program user interface for each participant user device. A CCU program generator module generates each CCU program, which is defined by attributes and rules selected via an administrator user interface (AUI). The CCU program is optionally defined by personalization, marketing, and/or targeting rules. A participant user interface (PUI) module identifies participant user devices of the CCU programs and provides identified participant user devices access to their unique CCU program. A processor executes processor-executable instructions comprising the AUI module, the PUI module, and the CCU program generator module to generate the CCU program of each identified participant user device.

Abstract: Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for preventing non-birds, such as squirrels, from accessing feed in a bird feeder. In one implementation, a mechanical link couples a first perch and a second perch to the roof assembly. The mechanical link may be configured to move both the first perch relative to the first feed port and the second perch relative to the second feed port upon movement of the first perch relative to the housing and/or upon movement of at least a portion of the roof assembly relative to the housing. As such, the bird feeder provides access to the feed in the bird feeder to wild birds, while preventing non-birds, such as squirrels, from accessing the feed.

Abstract: A bird feed dispenser for wild birds with squirrel-resistant mechanism that occludes feed ports when a non-bird having a weight sufficient to activate the mechanism engages a portion of the roof or a perch thereon. The dispenser includes at least two feed ports, corresponding perches, and a torsion spring that provide biasing force for the mechanism. The occlusion of feed ports in the dispenser is such that when a non-bird having weight sufficient to activate the mechanism engages a portion of the roof or a perch thereon, all the feed ports are obstructed.

Abstract: A bird feeder with a movable lid includes a knob which is grippable by the user of the bird feeder to slide the lid along a suspending cable. The knob includes a U-shaped spring with gripping surfaces that grip the cable. This U-shaped spring is firmly trapped between the knob and the upper surfaces of the lid. This assembly permits easy sliding of the lid against the frictional engagement provided by spring bias so that the lid is held down against the filler opening of the feed reservoir that, but can be slid along the cable against the frictional bias of the spring for easy filling.
