Aspects HummZinger Ultra Nectar Bird Feeder with 4 Feeding Ports, 12oz Capacity

The media could not be loaded. I mounted this feeder on a pole. A better way is to use the optional hanger to prevent ants from entering the feeder. Overall, it works. Video was captured using a Panasonic camcorder. (Panasonic is making great cameras these days btw)

I have had this feeder for 9 months now and love it for the many, many hours of joy it has brought us. I highly recommend this feeder.The hummingbirds in this area (San Diego) love it so much that we have one or two on it all day, every day. One birdie has decided to make it his private nectar source and chases away all others! Sometimes we get up to 5 at a time, with 4 birds feeding at the ports and the extra one trying to get its beak in:). The finch fledglings we get seem to want to try feeding at this feeder, too. It's so funny watching them. I'm thinking of getting another of these hummingbird feeders soon.This is easy to clean, easy to take apart and put up (we have ours hanging from a shepher's hook tied to our urban balcony railing), and holds just enough for a few days' feed. The volume is important because if you leave the sugar solution out too long it may ferment. Be especially wary of tiny black specks on the underside of the red cover. That is fungus and dangerous for the birds. I clean with an old toothbrush and boiling water every 3 days, occasionally with white vinegar solution and hot water. No problems so far.Buy this one. It is a great one to start with, until your feeder gets popular!

This is the best feeder I have ever seen, and I've been through dozens of different designs. First of all, bees leave it alone. I had such a problem with bees and wasps this summer that I resorted to chemical sprays, and I NEVER use chemicals! Once I got rid of the stingers, I purchased two of these feeders for my hummers. We love them! The hard plastic looks like it will last for a hundred years. The snap-on top is a fooler, because it's so easy, and I keep thinking it isn't on tight, but that doesn't matter because the feeder is designed so that the top will not dislodge or fall even it it isn't on tight. The ant moat works. The hanger is solid, which makes for easy moving and manipulation, and the feeder stays on the hooks on my porch even in 30 mph wind. My hummers buzzed around and gave these new feeders funny looks for about an hour, but once they got the idea, they were sold. Cleaning is simple because everything is wide and flat, with no little crannies to collect mold. I will never buy any other kind of feeder.

This hummer feeder works by far better than the bottle or "artistic" ones. It is easier to clean - a HUGE factor since we are about feeding, not killing them! It doesn't drip onto your porch or patio, it is resistant to bees and ants. It won't shatter if dropped. It has the recipe for nectar right in the lid, so you can't lose it. Nectar should be made by you, easy-peasy, and brought to a boil before cooling. Make a big batch and then freeze in smaller 'servings' for convenience. Don't use food coloring. The thing I like the most is the perching of the birds. Since they can see in front of themselves, they will sit and feed. I hang my feeders on a hook made from a wire coat hanger. I cut to make a hook at the top for hanging, then at the bottom, using the existing shape of the wire, I form a small bend to hold the top of the feeder and then bend out the last of the wire to near horizontal to make a 5" perch for the birds. It looks like a capital letter L with a small dip at the bottom angle to secure the feeder hook. The birds love this little perch. They sit and feed, then sit on their wire "branch" and keep watch. I have given this feeder to several people and they all love it, too. It's the best!

A month after I moved into my home, I bought my first hummingbird feeder, which turned out to be a disappointment. The reservoir was an attractive large plastic red apple, but it constantly leaked nectar. I threw it out. No more gravity feeders for me.So, the Hummzinger was a natural choice. It can't leak, it's easy to clean and I can watch the birds as they dip their beaks into the nectar.Although it's situated deep inside the branches of a tree on my patio, the hummers have had no trouble finding it, and they dart in and out all day. I've just ordered another feeder, and I plan to place it in the same tree.The Hummizinger is sturdy, well designed and well worth the price -- you really do get what you pay for.These birds have given me an immeasurable amount of pleasure. I sit on my patio just to watch these amazing creatures, which often hover for a few moments right in front of me. Perhaps it's their way of saying "thank you," but it is I who should be thanking them.
