The things that we've appreciate about Steve and Lisa are that they are close enough to drop in every few weeks; that they have excellent taste in gifts; and that Steven likes to work on projects.
This time they brought for Carolyn's birthday this ceramic teapot-looking thing. We puzzled over it until they explained that it was a hummingbird feeder. Two flowers on the upper edge on the pot have little holes for the hummingbird to find the sugar water inside.
We picked a place where the birds could safely feed and we could watch them. Steven screwed the feeder as high as necessary so that I wouldn't bump my head on it. Now we'll see if they notice their new feeder.

It looks like unlike the other one, this one is not air-tight and therefore the water level has to be below the holes. I wonder if that will make it harder for the birds, or if you will have to fill it more often.
ReplyDeleteI like it - different and pretty! Hope you add a picture of it in use to the blog one of these days.
