The red runs through with orange and the streaks climb out of the narrow foot like something going off, and because the glass was blown by hand rather than pressed in a mould, the pattern on the one that arrives is not the pattern on anybody else’s.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat is the argument for this hummingbird feeder in one sentence, and everything else is it doing its job properly. Thirty-two fluid ounces sit in that glass. The base is a brushed silver dish rather than plastic, with red flower ports set into it and a thin curved wire springing out beside each one for the birds to stand on. Hummingbirds hover when they have to and sit when they can, and a sitting bird stays long enough that you actually get to look at it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt stands 9.1 inches tall and 5.1 across, with a 2-inch base — a substantial hummingbird feeder without being the huge reservoir kind. Which brings the honest note: thirty-two ounces is a lot of nectar to get through in a few days, and nectar goes cloudy in warm weather in about that long. If your garden is quiet, fill the hummingbird feeder half full and change it on the same schedule you would use for a small one. The size is there for when the birds arrive, not instead of changing it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCleaning is the part most large feeders get wrong, and this hummingbird feeder comes with the answer in the box. The reservoir has a wide mouth, and a slim long-handled brush is included — which sounds like a small thing until you have tried to scrub the inside of a bottle with a cloth on the end of a spoon. The silver dish lifts off the glass, so the ports and the underside of the base wash separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn ant moat comes with it, along with a metal hook and a cotton lanyard. Fill the moat with water and hang it on the line above the hummingbird feeder; ants coming down the wire reach the water and stop. It wants topping up — in hot weather the water goes before the nectar does.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat the ports do not have is guards. There is no mesh and nothing set inside them, so the hummingbird feeder is not doing anything about wasps beyond keeping the nectar below the surface rather than open at the top. If stinging insects are a real problem where you are, buy one with guarded ports instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHang it on the hook or the lanyard, on a branch, a bracket or a shepherd’s hook, somewhere the low sun can get behind the glass in the morning or the evening. That is when a hummingbird feeder like this one earns its price.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEvery One Comes Out Different\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Base Comes Off In Your Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThirty-Two Ounces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Brush Comes With It\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Winslow Lane","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43309945356365,"sku":"WL-HUMMFIRE","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/4445\/6781\/files\/28eea227e1aa31441ca4211006a4afd6.png?v=1785012833","url":"https:\/\/www.winslowlane.com\/products\/hummingbird-feeder-in-hand-blown-firework-glass-32-oz-ant-moat-and-brush-included","provider":"Winslow Lane","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
