Bird Feeder Turns With The Wind

Bird Feeder Turns With The Wind FARM HOME recreation Omer Hachey got tired of watching bird seed blow around the yard when the wind picked up around his Madran New Brunswick home So he decided to make a bird feeder that rotates with the wind like a weather vane The feeder housing is made from a couple refrigerator crisper drawers screwed together and mounted on an old water pump housing that acts as the bearing Two 1-in pieces of wood extend out from either side of the feeder to catch the wind to rotate the feeder A plastic bucket mounts upside down below the bearing to keep squirrels out “This feeder saves a lot of seed and it’s fun to watch ” says Hachey Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Omer Hachey Madran New Brunswick E8J 2M7 Canada ph 506 544-6170
