The device is a thin rectangular column, with six perches [designed to be squirrel-proof; in fact this one--after much research--does seem to live up  to the claim]. Flocks of birds come eagerly, at first a few at a time, then in  swarms wherein if one is feeding, another is nearby fluttering ready to take its place, ad infinitum (at least until the seeds are gone). Towards the end of a cycle, the flow of birds can become a small cyclone...then peter out as quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI've been fascinated by the rhythms and patterns of these feedings, and eventually it became clear they were a wonderful stimulus for a musical translation. This short work is an evocation of and tribute to this avian energy and precision.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Robert Carl","offers":[{"title":"Physical","offer_id":67767383032028,"sku":"ACA-CARL-161","price":37.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Digital (PDF)","offer_id":67767383064796,"sku":"ACA-CARL-161e","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/8198\/2428\/files\/PagesfromCarl_FeederFrenzy-Score-2.jpg?v=1792093693","url":"https:\/\/composers.com\/products\/feeder-frenzy","provider":"American Composers Alliance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
