ABSTRACT:
An avian feeding device has a bird cage of the wire mesh type and a feeding tray that includes a bifurcated backing member with a mounting space provided between a front sheet portion and a rear web portion. The cage has a rectangular opening formed in a wire mesh, vertical wall by cutting away an adjacent plurality of its vertical wires. The tray mounts to the cage through such opening with downward movement to bring a horizontal wire of such mesh, vertical wall into the mounting space. No handles or like protrusions are needed to assist in removing the tray for service since it may be removed from the cage simply by applying upward pressure to the lower section of the rear web portion of the backing member and withdrawing the tray through the rear mesh wall opening which is of sufficiently small size that birds contained in the cage can not escape even with the feeding tray removed from the cage.
