  • Patent number: 6192832
    Abstract: A fully rotatable squirrel proof bird feeder for dislodging and preventing unwanted animals comprising a horizontal shaft with rotatable end sleeves, a seed receptacle with feed portals disposed midpoint and fixed to the shaft, and a counter-weighted shell comprising a window opening, weather awning, and rotatable perch assembly. The shell is mounted fully rotatable on the shaft closely surrounding the seed receptacle. Vertical braces fixed to the shaft ends prevent axial rotation of the seed receptacle and provide a secure method for hanging. An adjustable counter-weight fixed to the shell permits weight discrimination and biases alignment between the window opening and the feed portals. In the open feeding position, birds of preferential weight land on the perch and pass through the window opening to the feed portals.
