Avian Anerometer
Twelve stainless steel cups attached vertically to
The ends of radial rods catch the wind. The rods are stepped on the central axle
so that each of the end cups is higher than the cup preceding. The cups rotate
in a screw-like plane. Also at the end of the radial rods are another twelve
Stainless cups. These carry birdseeds. Wind on the cups causes rotation of the
Machine. Action/reaction of the birds taking off and landing also promotes
rotation. A merry-go-round of shameless birds.
