A **brand new** release of the wildly popular [Soda Bottle Bird Feeder][id1] with a humongous perch for Big Birds. They will be flocking to this one!
If you are keen on miserly filament consumption and to do your share to prevent global warming, choose the [three spoke][id2] version. It is strong enough for birds, but quite flexy. Kids might break it. The [four spoke][id3] and [six spoke][id4] versions are more robust.
In this incarnation, the perch is lowered to the build plate. It is firmly attached to the base so you needn't glue it on. This feeder accommodates birds with longer legs and torsos such as mature cardinals, snipes and the elusive Dodo.
Hang it with this [Bottle Feeder Hook][id5], and this **new** [Treble Clef Hook][id6]. ** October 5, 2018 Update **Added a version with grip, six spokes and no drain holes. This was requested by a maker to feed water to his baby chicks.
** May 1, 2017 Update **Added grip to feeder chute for easier removal from the bottle. Prevents breakage when tempted to torque it off by the wavy supports.
