Burgermeister's setup.
Describe for us, Burger?
Bruce, I just now saw this post.
Sorry, its not a very good pic. but notice the solar panel on left side of feeder. The blue basket also keeps the rain off the front of the feeder. Drill a hole in the low side of the channel of the basket so it will drain.
5 gal. Igloo cooler to keep the heat and humidity down. I also secured a bag of dessicent inside the top cover to take up moisture. I first placed the basket over it because there are 2 vertical channels on the rim of the cover which slips inside the cooler. This caused a leak inside. There is a 10 gallon round cooler made, which has a screw on lid. I will still use the basket to help keep front of feeder mechanism dry.
Crude, but effective. The ring is just to catch the short flyers.
