ABSTRACT:
A collapsible feeder for birds, squirrels and the like is disclosed and comprises a disk-shaped upper support plate having a central feed fill opening formed therein. A cover selectively closes the central feed fill opening. A truncated, conical-shaped collapsible metal mesh wall is secured to the upper support plate and extends downwardly and outwardly therefrom. The lower end of the mesh wall is closed by means of a conical-shaped lower support plate which is perforated. A perch ring is provided at the lower end of the feeder to enable animals to perch thereon. The mesh wall has a plurality of diamond-shaped openings formed therein. The feeder may be selectively collapsed for shipment and storage. An inverted U-shaped hanger bracket is secured to the upper support plate for supporting the feeder in an upright position below a support bracket, tree branch or the like.
