Delrio's bird feeder

Delrio drew a plan of a bird feeder with all the parts required along with the measurements and they were given to Chrissie's husband who followed the plan and cut out all the parts to Delrio's specifications.
It was then built with a lot of measuring and screwing together. Delrio did this using a cordless drill, square drive screws and bolts.
The roof was added last. Delrio glued bark from a Kanuka tree with small branches along the sides so that the birds can land easily before drinking the sugar water.
We attached it to the metal pole with bolts, using spanners to tighten them up so it is secure and finally planted a few plants around the base so that by springtime it should look pretty with flowers.
