Abstract: This invention relates to a method and structure designed to prevent squirrels and other animals from accessing bird feeders. The solution employs aluminum or other weather resistant metal rings, each with an inner diameter of 1.5 inches (with 3 mm tolerance), to create barriers that are mounted on a wooden, polycarbonate or similar weather resistant platform. These rings are connected to each other and to the glass or other clear weather resistant front and back panels using silicone adhesive or a small nut and bolt. The structure ensures that no entry point exceeds 1.5 inches, effectively deterring non-bird animals from accessing the enclosed space.

Abstract: The present technology provides systems and methods for resisting intrusion of a pest into a supply of bird seed held in a birdfeeder. In one implementation, a base has a surface extending to a base edge. A perch has a body extending from a perch first end to a perch second end. The perch body is disposed relative to a slot. A collapsible member is mounted to the base at a first attachment point. The first attachment point is disposed inward relative to the base edge. The collapsible member is mounted to the perch at a second attachment point. The collapsible member has a pivot point defined between the first attachment point and the second attachment point. The collapsible member moves the perch from a feeding position to a non-feeding position by pivoting at the pivot point upon an application of a force above a threshold on the perch body.

Abstract: A bird feeder including a removable base, which is configured to be easily removed from the body of the bird feeder by simply pulling the knob downwards to disengage the base from the main body of the enclosure, may be provided. An enclosure may include a top and bottom opening and a side wall. The bottom end of the enclosure may be enclosed by a base member including a pull knob device fixed inside the base member. The base member may be releasably secured to the enclosure by a pull knob mechanism. The base member can be easily removed using pull knob mechanism such that as the pull knob is pulled downwards by a user, locking pins engages a taper slider of the pull knob device and retracts horizontally in the inward direction.
