Woodlink Happy Hour Margarita Hummingbird Feeder [Kitchen]

 (4 customer reviews)

Although very cute the hummingbirds could not figure out how to use this feeder. I have 15 or so feeders in my yard of all different kinds and shapes and once in a while, they do not like a certain kind.This is one of them. I tried painting the feed holes red but it still did not work. They were attracted but I think the nectar sits too low. Wish it worked as I really liked the idea of hanging a margarita glass for them to drink out of.

I originally tracked these down based on a chat with mom - who was quite amused by the idea. They were pretty inexpensive, so I got two - one for me and one for her. When I got it, I was impressed by the design. The option of mounting on vertical or horizontal railings is a real plus - who has ever seen a margarita glass hovering in mid-air. (... well, except for that one time in San Antonio.) I put mine on the deck railing, close enough to the house that rain water would be less likely to get into the holes and dilute the food. To be completely candid, I was skeptical, but the birds have found it and come on a regular basis. Just last night we had 2 visitors during dinner, even though the feeder is only about 8 feet from the table. We still get a kick out of watching the hummers having a sip of "margarita" with us.

A must have for any Jimmy Buffett fan. The feeder is whimsical, as well as functional. Takes the Hummingirds to Margaritaville.
