[edit]

birdfeeder (plural birdfeeders)

  1. A device placed outdoors to supply food to birds.
    • 2007 January 18, Patricia Leigh Brown, “In Death as in Life, a Personalized Space”, in New York Times[1]:
      Although artist-designed urns and other objects are still a tiny fraction of the $11 billion death-care industry, as it is known, the gallery’s opening — along with novelty items like wind chimes with built-in cavities, pencils made from cremated remains (roughly 250 pencils per person), diamonds made from ash carbon and birdfeeders designed to scatter ashes — reflect the shifting demographics of death and disposition.
