Featured Bird:HummingbirdHummingbirds are wonderful little creatures and each one has its own personality, not to mention attitude. They are the smallest bird in the world, and are the only bird to be able to fly forwards as well as backwards. The maneuvers they make mid-air are incredible and they are known the world over for their flying acrobatics. Hummingbirds are the original helicopter and are considered by many to be little clowns as they dash and dart amongst each other. They have the ability to give us hour upon hour of entertainment. The price of admission, a little sugar water and the right location.

Featured Feeder:Hummingbird FeederThis attractive hummingbird feeder includes a built-in ant

moat and has a removable ring perch. The ant moat, when filled with water, deters ants from reaching the nectar openings

on your feeder. The large capacity, fluted, glass bottle holds 31 oz of nectar for your beautiful hummingbirds. You can fill it with less nectar, if you have fewer hummingbirds

visiting. The red base and ant moat, along with life-like, red flowers will attract many hummingbirds. This feeder easily disassembles for thorough cleaning and the wide-mouth bottle opening makes filling easy. Clean feeder every 2-3 days in hot weather.
