ABSTRACT:
A collapsible bird feeder having a tubular lower chamber with feed ports near the bottom of the lower chamber and side walls extending from the top of the lower chamber to the bottom of the lower chamber is disclosed. A lip extends inwardly from the side walls near the top of the lower chamber. A tubular upper chamber has feed ports near the lower end of the upper chamber and side walls extending from the top of the upper chamber to the bottom of the upper chamber. A lip extends outwardly from the side walls of the upper chamber near the bottom of the upper chamber. A fill tube extends from the top of the upper chamber through the bottom of the upper chamber to allow material to pass from near the top of the upper chamber into the lower chamber. The lower chamber has an inner perimeter and the upper chamber has an outer perimeter. The outer perimeter is of similar cross sectional shape and slightly smaller than the inner perimeter to allow the upper chamber so that the upper chamber may slide within the lower chamber.
