No more bees, no drips, a snap to clean! I initially bought a classic “perky pet” feeder, with the glass jar draining down into several feeding “flowers.” Despite the bee guards, I often saw yellowjackets hovering around it. They squeezed themselves along the underside of the bee guards to get dribbles that leaked out of the flowers. Also, I learned that bees are drawn to yellow (the color of the plastic flowers). I’m sure ants would have found the dribbles before long, as well – there were even splatters on my deck…
THE BEST Hummingbird Feeder!!!!! Author of the Peterson Hummingbird field guide, Sheri Williamson, consulted on the creation of this feeder. And it shows! Everything is thought out so that THIS feeder is THE VERY BEST hummingbird feeder available. Bees are attracted to yellow, so NO yellow on this feeder. Design enables hummingbirds (with their long bills) to feed, but no bees and wasps (which is not the case with feeders that look like upside down dish detergent bottles, where the nectar is right there and easily…
Attracts hummers and easy to clean This feeder is very effective at drawing in hummingbirds, probably because it looks like a big, red flower; and it is easy to clean–which other feeders I have tried are not. It also has an effective ant trap, and it doesn’t dribble, so it won’t attract yellowjackets. A downside is its small capacity, so it’s most appropriate for locations that are not overrun with hummingbirds. (If you put out this feeder in Southern Arizona, you’d be refilling it every hour.)
