Questions & Answers
They come over and I just sit in the sun with my camera. The butterflies took some time to get used to having me sit close, but now one of them will eat the nectar from my hand. They move fast, but if you are still and just stare, you can get a lot of information. When I go out to take pictures, I also wear red or a light color. The colors they like are appealing to them.
Since I already feed them with a hanging feeder on my deck, they are already familiar with it. Afterwards, I just sat in my lawn chair for a while holding the hand feeder in my hand, resting my elbow on the arm of the chair, and was extremely still and quiet. In no time at all, the female was buzzing around the hanging feeder when she saw me and heaved herself some food! In about ten minutes, the male also had the same result. In most cases, they did not return for 30 to 40 minutes after that. It is likely that they will not come in as often if there is too much available for them to eat.
In my role as "dishwasher", I'm responsible for dishes. I can be gentle and it will be okay.

In addition, This miniature feeder has been a long time in coming, but I am glad I finally bought it. maintain several large feeders on my front porch and I've calculated that I possibly have well over 60 hummingbirds here. read that to estimate how many you have, multiply the number of hummingbirds you see at one time by six and that is what you have. ) At the beginning of the season, I began spending anywhere between 15 minutes and a little more than an hour under my feeder. I didn't have to wait long for them to get used to me and fly It probably took a week or two for one to actually eat from my hand. Now it doesn't take long for one to come eat each time I sit outside. Some will look at me before they feed and will hover just a few inches in front of my face as they feed. If you could tell me what they think or what they are doing, I'd be thrilled! Although they hover near my ear with that buzzing sound, even when I'm sitting still as a statue, I've learned to sit as still as a statue. That's a little surprising. Only once do I recall having a hummingbird land on my finger, but I had this happen! Buying these for just that reason was worth it! In addition, I leave the suction cups on a window and on my glass door when they are not in use for hand feeding. Our family loves seeing them come up to the bar to get a drink throughout the day. These feeders are awesome, but be aware that you need plenty of patience to gain their trust!! (Here is a hint It has been my experience that hummingbirds become very active before a rain storm, so I find that to be a good time to sit outside and wait for them to feed.
It is nearly impossible to keep up with the number, so I was excited to attempt hand feeding them with this little feeder. So that they would become accustomed to the hanging feeder, I placed one of the feeders on a window next to the hanging feeder. As soon as the birds became accustomed to my presence, I would go out holding the second feeder when they were most active. It took some time for them to become used to my presence, but eventually I was successful! I originally had a hard time getting the suction cup to stick to the window, but I read a tip that advised putting a small amount of vaseline around the rim of the cup and once I did that, it always stayed put.
Hummingbirds can get their tongues cut by the yellow flower insert. Be careful! The sides of the plastic flower can cause abrasions. Thanks to its removable nature, you can remove it. You can use this feeder with or without the yellow flower. I would recommend you start with a hummingbird feeder the size of an airline bag and then move on to this one once trust and familiarity are established. One hummingbird in my garden chases off all the others seeking nectar in order to guard its nectar supply. There is something delightful about watching him fly up on his own while eating even if it is just one bird. One more tip It is possible to make nectar at home for yourself by adding 1 part sugar to The best way to feed them is to make it yourself rather than buy it. This product is store bought because it is free from chemical additives and artificial colors.
This would be a perfect gift for a hummingbird enthusiast.
My intention was to purchase these on a whim, hoping they would work. I will admit I was skeptical after reading a few On my porch, I have a feeder that already has a devoted following, and I often sit on the porch. Because they were already used to my presence, this helped immensely in getting them to feed out of my hand. You have to be patient. I think waiting for the handheld feeders to arrive helped to make it so easy to use the handheld feeder very quickly. During this time I gradually moved my chair closer and lowered my feeder, so that the bird could quickly use the handheld Worth the effort. Thank you for posting this. I hope that this helps someone. A quick update However, given that I did not order them for windows, I am still giving five stars even though the suction cups do not stick as well to the Just had them for one day, and it seems that my hummers prefer the handheld feeders to the bigger I am so happy to be here.
I was surprised and delighted to find that birds do come to the feeder when it is on my hand! It will take some patience - The best way for me to do this is to stand near one of the larger feeders and hold my hand The brave birds who come so close to a giant human thrill me, even though I don't have one on my finger yet. The birds in my yard are more likely to feed from the smaller hand feeder if the larger feeders in my yard need refilling. The two of them are pretty funny - The birds let us know they are waiting for nectar when the feeders are empty, by getting right up in our faces telling us that we don't have any My goal is to create an environment that will foster their growth and development.
They are super cute. The suction cup is not able to adhere to glass. I gave one to my neighbor, and she says that hers keeps falling off too. My understanding is that the clips are to be used The problem is! Using the suction cup would allow me to place it on the window when I am not holding it! It's inconvenient to bring it into the house every time, isn't that what the suction cup is meant There needs to be a functional one if it is. My next attempt involved gluing a new suction cup on top of the old one, with no luck! There is no way to remove the bad feeder because it is attached all the way around! So my little feeder got put in the drawer that says "bad purchase" Sorry to be honest, but I have to be honest!.
