Construct the structural frame using rot-resistant cedar, milling delicate muntins to hold the clear acrylic glazing panes. This skeleton serves as the primary skeleton for the conservatory walls.

Install the faceted, pitched roof assembly using copper sheeting strips to create waterproof seams at each peak. The copper will naturally patina over time, adding a classic Victorian antique charm to the structure.

Incorporate a central, gravity-fed seed hopper hidden within an ornate decorative finial at the roof's apex. The seed flows into a perimeter tray that sits beneath the eaves, protected from the rain by the overhanging glass walls.

Finish the wood surfaces with a high-grade exterior tung oil to emphasize the natural grain while ensuring protection from the elements. Attach a hinged side panel to provide easy access for seasonal cleaning and refilling the inner reservoir.
