Description

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of my new wild bird feeder.

FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view of my new bird feeder showing lid and perch separated from the main body of said bird feeder.

FIG. 3 is a left side elevational view of my new bird feeder, the right side being a mirror image thereof.

FIG. 4 is a front elevational view of my new bird feeder, the back being a mirror image thereof.

FIG. 5 is a top view of my new bird feeder; and,

FIG. 6 is a bottom view of my new bird feeder.

My bird feeder is characterized by a truncated trapezoidal shape terminated with an arc shaped trough at the small end and an arc shaped lid, concentric with the trough, at the big end. Two opposite faces of the tetrahedron are transparent, the other two faces adjacent to the transparent faces are opaque and display cross creases reminiscent of heating ventilation and air conditioning sheet metal fabrication practice.
