Payday before last I discovered at Walmart these single service Hummingbird feeders(2 to a pack!)and got a couple. They make much more sense than my usual ones for two reasons:
Hummers are territorial. No more than one at a time will feed anyway
The standard feeders have too big a reservoir, making it too easy to put off cleaning until nearly empty....which can take over a month
Sadly, yesterday I was off by a couple minutes; as I was hanging them in my front courtyard I heard the buzz of one. If I'd just been quicker it'd been up and I wouldn't have scared it away.....
