ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a storage container which is convertible into a bird nesting box, the container preferably having a snap-on lid or cover and being commonly available as a disposable receptacle for the packaging of consumable powders, granular materials or other food stuffs such as instant soft drinks, coffee, and the like. The container and the snap-on cover are provided with pre-stressed portions which can be readily removed, a measuring cup such as typically provided within such a container also having a pre-stressed portion thereof which can be removed to form a cylindrical sleeve-like member open at both ends. The measuring cup is further provided with spaced flanges or threads on the exterior surface thereof which can be fitted within the aperture formed on removal of the pre-stressed portion on the snap-on cover to hold the cup therein, the container forming a suitable nesting box on placement of the cover and cup assembly on the open end thereof. The handle of the measuring cup is further pivotable about its point of connection to the cup to provide a perch outside the entrance opening formed by the aforesaid aperture in the cover and the cylindrical cup.
