A bird feeder device comprises a generally cylindrical food
container, a substantially circular feeding platform, and a
removable cover. A plurality of concentric perching rings permit
both small and large birds to easily access the seed or other food
on the feeding platform. The bird feeder device has a means for
water molecules to escape from the feeding platform. The
removable cover may be inverted to feed water or other liquid to
birds. A plurality of bird feeder devices may be stacked
together. Also disclosed is a means for illuminating a
substantially spherical or ellipsoidal squirrel guard attached to
the bird feeder device. This invention relates to bird feeders,
more particularly to a bird feeder having perching rings.
