Hummingbird Feeder Replaced
I've been feeding hummingbirds for 3 years now. Exposure to the weather, and especially direct sunlight, has taken a toll on my feeder. It worked well, but it's time for a new one.
Here are a few photos taken during the last 3 years while using my first hummer feeder.

| Lucky capture. Hummers don't like to share a feeder. Occasionally they will and it's unusual to see 3 at once. |

| My favorite photo snapped at sunset. |
And now, my new feeder ...
 |
| In use now for about 3 weeks and it does seem to be popular with the little birds. |
How do you like the looks of the new feeder?
Linking up with Saturday's Critters ... check it out.
Your feeder lived a good life feeding many grateful hummers. The top of the new one is colorful and beautiful. Looks like glass, but I could be wrong. Anyway, it looks very classy. I can see why the sunset hummingbird is your favorite. It's mine also. I haven't kept up with blogs lately, but I was happy to see your post.
ReplyDeleteHello John,
ReplyDeleteI just love all your sweet hummingbird photos,. They are such cute birds. It is great to see the 3 hummers sharing the feeder. Your new feeder is pretty, very colorful. Love the shot of the hummingbird at sunset. Thank you for linking up and sharing your critter post. Take care, have a great weekend. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
Your new feeder looks great, the sunset photo is my favorite too!
ReplyDeletethat’s a great-looking new feeder. So colorful but still enough red to attract the hummers.
ReplyDeletebest, mae at maefood.blogspot.com
I like it and look forward to the pictures you'll get with it! :-)
ReplyDeleteAround here they're a rare, fleeting sight. Once or twice I've seen two at once, fighting, using their beaks like swords, tiny but scary.
ReplyDeleteThe new one looks modern and lovely!
ReplyDeleteHello John :=)
ReplyDeleteI like your new feeder and so do the hummingbirds, which is the most important thing. Your photos of the hummers are delightful, and the one caught at sunset exceptional. I have never seen a Hummingbird where I live, unfortunately they are not from my part of the world, but I once saw one in Brasil. You're a lucky man to have them visit you,, but I know you know that.:=)
Enjoy your weekend
All the best
Sonjia.
John you are lucky, I'd love to have hummers here.
ReplyDeleteHummers can be very active. I didn't see one here this year.
ReplyDeleteWow! Wonderful photos of the humming birds ~ thanks,

The new feeder looks greatful, believe the Hummingbirds find it too wonderful. We know here Hummingbirds only by TV and therefore I admire your mission for this birds.
ReplyDeleteI hope it gives as good service as the previous one! Great photos!
ReplyDeleteI sure do like the new feeder. That should be sure to attract the hummers.
ReplyDeleteYour new feeder looks great ...
ReplyDeleteLovely photographs on your post.
All the best Jan
Oh my! I love it! It's like a pretty work of art and the hummers seem to like it too. I was happy to see you with a new post today. Take care and enjoy your walks this week! Hugs, Diane
ReplyDeleteThe new feeder is great. It's likely that will bring the hummers there.
