Hummingbirds are territorial: one bird will sit on a feeder and spend its whole afternoon chasing everything else off it. Give a hummingbird feeder ten openings spread the whole way round a wide base and one bird cannot see them all at once. The chasing does not stop, but it stops working.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe perch is one continuous ring right round the outside, so a bird lands wherever it happens to arrive and walks round to whichever port is free. On a busy afternoon you can have several birds on this hummingbird feeder at the same time on opposite sides of the ring, which is a thing you almost never get to watch on a four-port bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt holds 32 fl oz. That is a lot of nectar, and it deserves the honest caveat: a big reservoir does not mean you change it less often. Sugar water goes cloudy within a few days in warm weather no matter what it is in. Fill this hummingbird feeder right up if you have a crowd working it; if you have two birds, put a third of it in and change it just as often.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe whole hummingbird feeder is moulded polymer rather than glass, which is a real trade rather than a compromise you should ignore. It will not look like a piece of coloured glass hanging in a border and it is not trying to. What it is is light when full, unbothered by being dropped on a patio slab, and cheap enough to keep a second hummingbird feeder going at the other end of the garden.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCleaning is where a large hummingbird feeder is usually lost, and this one is built round that problem. The reservoir has a wide fluted mouth, so a bottle brush goes straight down it and reaches the walls. Under it, the base twists apart into two pieces, which opens up every surface the nectar touches — the underside of the ports, the inside of the dish, the channel the sealing ring sits in. There is no sealed cavity and no corner you have to hope about.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat sealing ring is what seats the reservoir into the base when you screw the two together. Get it flat in its channel and turn firmly before you invert the hummingbird feeder, and let the vacuum settle for a moment before you hang it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe maker publishes no height or width for this hummingbird feeder, so we will not quote one. What is published is 32 fl oz, ten ports and a circular perch. Full, it is heavy — hang it from its S-hook on something that would hold a bag of shopping rather than on a thin twig, and put it where you can see the whole ring from a window.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTen Ports, All The Way Round\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Base Twists Apart\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e32 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHang It High And Clear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Winslow Lane","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43309945323597,"sku":"WL-HUMM10PT","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/4445\/6781\/files\/9a64367abea64084dfd491891a67eaf5.png?v=1785012799","url":"https:\/\/www.winslowlane.com\/products\/hummingbird-feeder-with-10-ports-32-oz-wide-mouth-reservoir-and-a-full-perch-ring","provider":"Winslow Lane","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
