  • Shade for hummingbird feeder
    Patent number: 7162975
    Abstract: A system and method for a bird feeder is disclosed. The feeder includes a feed reservoir positioned under a shade. The shade has a diameter that is at least twice as large as the diameter of the feed reservoir and located above the feed reservoir such that the shade substantially covers the reservoir thereby limiting the impingement of direct sunlight on the reservoir. By limiting the amount of direct sunlight received by the reservoir the freshness of the feed can be more efficiently maintained.

    Abstract: A feeder assembly has a collapsible shade to selectively shield a feed container. The shade is operable from an extended position to a collapsed position and positioned such that, when extended, the shade substantially covers the feed container thereby limiting the impingement of direct sunlight or rain on the feed container. By limiting the amount of direct sunlight or rain impinged on the feed container, the freshness of the feed can be more efficiently maintained.
