Netatmo Rain Gauge Bird Spikes

A set of spikes to stop birds sitting on your Netatmo Rain Gauge.

Description

Photo of the bird spikes in situ

I find that my rain gauge is quite popular with the local birds who like to sit on it as a look-out point. I wouldn’t mind, but they do keep dropping things in there that aren’t rain. So, with regret, I had to stop them.

Notes For Printing

This is a pretty simple print and doesn’t need any special settings. Obviously it needs to be a weatherproof material. The model can either be glued or taped to the gauge, as you see fit.
