Would just love to see pics as I am looking to do one also. Working on stained glass wall hanging now.

We don't get them until around Mother's Day :( I have a few weeks yet. But it is a good reminder to hunt up the feeders and wash them out :)

They are so cute, it probably will be a while before we see them here.

Just for you, from another 'Hummer' lover. :thumbup:

My sister 'shot' this in her own yard.

Sissy, thanks for letting us know. I hung my feeder out yesterday hoping it will nto be long before they arrive. About the Orioles liking Grape Jelly, yes they sure do. We have had a feeder for 2 yrs now that has a copper top and a place to place 2 glass jelly cups in it. You also put 2 orange halves on it and the Orioles love it! I googled Oriole feeders Mon. night & found these same feeders and a few others. Of course I ordered. LOL For the pst 2 Seasons we have had 2 pairs each being a diff variety of Orioles. I Love them! The Co. I found these feeders is Duncraft.
