ABSTRACT:
A tubular bird feeder includes a self-contained seed scoop comprising a depending portion of a top cap, which includes a rim for seating about the exterior of the side wall of the tubular body. A bent wire hanger is inserted into a pair of opposed apertures near the top of the bird feeder and a channel in one side wall of the scoop portion and the cut-away portion of the scoop itself allow clearance of the hook portions of the hanger. A bottom cap closes the bottom of the tubular bird feeder. A number of apertures in the side wall of the tubular body of the bird feeder allow birds access to the seed and a number of dowels inserted through apertures lying across a diameter of a section of the tubular body of the bird feeder provide perches for the feeding birds.
