 
The traditional
hopper is popular and prevalent. Due to its
straight-forward simplicity, a hopper feeder
often is the one people choose when they first
start feeding the birds. As the name implies, a
hopper feeder is a box-like storage and
dispensing system that not only makes seed
available for birds on demand but usually has a
roof to help keep seed dry. It stores seed and
automatically replenishes it in the feeder port,
usually through gravity, until the hopper is
empty. |
