My New Hummingbird Feeder

I was motivated by my neighbor’s accidental success in attracting hummingbirds (to the flowering weeds climbing up his drain spout) to purchase my own bright red feeder, and hang it in my living room window.  I happened upon a gift card I’d forgotten about to PetSupplies.com, and scoured their selection for something appropriate that would fit well on the window hanger I have hanging up there already.

I liked this:

And this gorgeous little Hummingbird hot air balloon feeder:

And I ultimately chose this selection for it’s cute double decker design, and bright, daisy feeding flowers.  The long and thin shape will fit in better  on my window hanger without posing a risk to the window glass, and double the feeding stations will encourage multiple birds to feed at the same time.  How adorable is that?

Hummingbirds are currently on their southern migration to Mexico and beyond for the winter right now, but I can’t help but want to drop them a little pit stop snack while they are on their way down there.  I hope to catch a few birds feeding on it before I need to put it away for the winter, so I’m excited for it to arrive!  Bring on the birds.
