Made of [bird food](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cool-birds) and human ash, this 'Never Die' bird feeder by Nadine Jarvis has become a popular topic of controversy.

The creation of Nadine Jarvis' teardrop-shaped 'Never Die' bird feeder stemmed from the idea that people could be [reincarnated](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/funerary-urn) through the bird that fed on the ashes of the deceased. Although it may seem disturbing to some, if you believe in reincarnation, this feeder might just be regarded as the perfect vessel of life.
