I don’t see a market for this.

Make it Bluetooth activated and someone will buy it!

Walt Disney in his early teens? His next big idea came to him in biology class when he dissected a Mouse.

Birds are sloppy eaters. The ground beneath a feeder is littered with rejects and spillage from biting off more than they can chew.

Great…napkins with bird poo.

Young Ron Popeil.

Okay, that’s just weird.

So that you have birds pooing all over your picnic lunch?

It has dual use, so don’t poo-poo his idea just yet! Birds have been struggling for centuries with proper outdoor napkin dispensary!

And humans, at the dining room table, would all enjoy reaching for a napkin and doin’ a little bird watchin’ at dinner time. I know I would!

Now, for the dinner table use! I know what yer thinkin’… “hey, what about the bird poo?!”

My answer is: “Hell-oooo… napkin dispenser!”

We’re still using the napkin holder that my son made in Cub Scouts 20+ years ago.

Under the birdhouse? ☺️☺️☺️☺️

Another Edison in the making.

Sorry, Bleeb. Although this is mildly interesting to “observe,” you don’t seem to be having a very good day.

The squirrels will love it; food and nesting materials..

The “Mega Corps” will steal the idea. make a zillion dollars and leave you to rot in their dust!

Having a bird feeder in my front yard, I’m here to tell you that often the birds will defecate while eating. So – that could possibly end up “on the napkins.” Anyone see a problem here?

That’s stupid!

Ah good something to wipe their beaks with

As a retired wood shop teacher I can tell you this. NEVER wear a necktie around machinery.

Walt just thinks outside the box. It could be very useful for outdoor BBQs.

I’ve always wanted one of those!

Walt’s next stop is the Twilight Zone where he ages and then moves to Ballard Street

Wouldn’t you get napkins full of bird poop?

What a clever idea! Now birds don’t have to go far to wipe their bills after eating bird feed!

Walt would go on to be the famous inventor of the combination back-scratcher/bidet!
