The existing willow feeder called ‘willow wonka’ had a poor system of signaling whether it was occupied or not. I upgraded it by making a large wood burned sign that can be seen from 50ft. It works by raiding or lowering a sac filled with rocks that serve as a weight. The sign swings up and down depending on the position of the bag.
