A project log for Vending Machine for Birds

Simple, inexpensive bird feeder that dispenses peanuts in exchange for dropping stuff in a hole. A vending machine for clever birds.

It looks like my project name could use some improvement. There are a lot of things and people out there already using "nerdfeeder" and the resulting confusion is understandable.

I was thinking more along the lines of a birdfeeder for nerds - or maybe that the birds themselves must be nerds if they can figure this out. Mostly, I liked that it sounded like "birdfeeder".

I haven't been able to come up with a better name yet, other than a few that could be equally confusing, like "Nuts for Butts". 

I'll be thinking, but if anyone reading this has a clever idea I would appreciate any suggestions.

Excellent suggestions - thank you! I really like the "Por Un Mani" suggestion. Now I have ABBA in my head :)

>"Por Un Mani" -> "for a peanut" in Spanish

Mani, mani, mani, it's an avian game (sung to the ABBA tune)

"Birdie Binman" -> a bird that collects garbage.

"Avian Enigmatologist" -> a bird that studies puzzles.

"Avian Enigma"
"Por Un Mani" -> "for a peanut" in Spanish

"Goobers For Garbage" -> goober is another word for peanut
