Perky-Pet Window Mount Hummingbird Feeder - 8 oz Nectar Capacity, 3 Bee Guard Ports, Suction Cup and Removable Perches, Clear Plastic Shatter-Resistant Bottle for Outdoor Backyard Bird Watching, 217

The hummingbirds love this. It's easy to fill but the first few times it's a bit tough getting the prongs pinched so the bottom can come off. Once you get the hang of it, it's a great little feeder. I now have 3 new ones but have had a couple for 2 years. Eventually the back prongs cracked and broke, but they work great and we can enjoy watching the birds every morning and night.

How many times have you filled your hummingbird feeder that dangles only to have it empty out on the ground on a windy day? Or those that have a feeding tube that drips constantly? They're all going in the garage sale because this feeder is the bomb. We didn't use the suction cup, we put a screw into one of the posts of the patio cover, which is very near the flower bed where the hummers come, and hung the feeder using the hole that holds the suction cup. My thinking was that if the wind blew it any at all, I could tie a string or a long twist-tie around the bottom of the clear part and the post to secure it. But so far I haven't had to do that. I prefer that the hummers get their nectar from the flowers because it's better for them, but it's nice to have supplemental feeders in case they're not finding enough. Mounted this way, the feeder doesn't sway in the breeze and the nectar stays in the feeder. It only holds a cup, and I find that's too much, so I only make half a cup of nectar at a time. 2 TBSP sugar to 1/2 cup warm water (this works out to a ratio of one part sugar to four parts water), stir till the water's clear, change it every day. So far I haven't found any ants in it, but if I do, I'll put a Tanglefoot barrier on the lower part of the post. This is an update, I always buy a couple of these to keep in reserve, in case one gets damaged in the midst of hummingbird season, and one of my reserve feeders leaked. From now on, I'll test the red reservoir on the bottom to make sure the seam around the bottom has been adequately glued, as soon as it arrives in the mail. It had been so long since I bought the one that leaked that I didn't think I could return it. Hubs stopped the leak with clear caulking material. But seriously, if you're buying these ahead to use as replacements, do check for leaks. Usually what happens that requires the ordering of another is that the plastic prongs on the red base break. They fit into the clear part so if even one breaks, that renders the whole thing unusable. I'd be a happy camper if these prongs weren't so delicate. I do agree that the plastic prongs that snap into the grooves to hold the clear part to the red part do look a little delicate, so I am being careful to squeeze them gently together when I lock and unlock the parts from one another. So far so good. There are only two feeding holes, this being virtually "half a feeder", so I am ordering more. Last fall I had fifteen hummers at my feeders and they fight for feeding rights. I don't see a two-hole feeder being a disadvantage since one hummer will chase all the others away from a four-hole feeder anyway and it's actually better to have several small feeders in different locations than it is to have just a couple of bigger ones. It's also easy to clean. Priced at $11.65 at this writing, and free shipping, you can pay a lot more for a hummingbird feeder that sways in the wind or leaks in some other way. I wouldn't suction-cup it to a window because I think it might be a bit heavy. Today I'm ordering a "jewel box" style feeder that's only $7.50, I will review after it's received, I will use that one on a window. Oh, and remember, plastic fades and cracks with long exposure to sun, you'll be putting feeders in the shade, anyhow, won't you? But take them in when the season's over and they'll last a long time.

I’ve been using the Perky-Pet Plastic Window Mount Hummingbird Feeder for two seasons now, and I like it enough that I’ve added a second one. One of my favorite things about this feeder is being able to watch hummingbirds right up at the window—it gives such a close-up view you don’t get with traditional feeders. I wasn’t sure at first if they would use a feeder this close to the house, but they had no problem finding it. The size is just right—not too big or too small—and it makes it easy to keep the nectar fresh since I can clean and refill it regularly. The feeder is also easy to take apart, clean, and refill. The suction cups have held up very well, and I haven’t had any issues with them coming loose. As shown in my photos, they stay securely attached to the window. I also haven’t had any issues with it attracting bees or ants, which has been a big plus. It can leak a little when flipping it over after filling, but it’s easy to avoid by doing that step outside, and it hasn’t been a big issue for me. Overall, this has worked really well for us and has been a great way to enjoy watching hummingbirds up close. I would definitely recommend it.

Cheap little feeder, but it has held up well. The hummingbirds love it and fight for a perch. Really fun for the grandkids who love watching from inside the window. Holds well on the window so far and is easy to clean. I only wish the reservoir was bigger, because the birds empty it in only a few hours and we are constantly taking it down to fill it.

Works well, birds like it and it is easy to clean. It doesn't leak as temperature changes.

This was an exact replacement. The previous one had been knocked down during a major storm and the plastic had broken where the suction cup attached. Freak accident. My mother liked this because she could have it on the window without it being intrusive to her view.

Very nice feeder! Just as described! Sturdy, functional, EASY to set up and stick to window! The suction holds excellently! And it attracts hummingbirds like crazy!

Apparently there is no humming bird in Australia. I'm just trying my luck to see if it attracts other similar small birds. This is not too expensive as an experiment. Two weeks in, no bird yet.

A los colibríes les encanto. Hay que abrir concuidado las alitas de atras pero por lo demas muy bueno. Tarda en bajar el líquido por lo que le hice dos pequeñas perforaciones poco arriba de la entreda en la base y con ello les facilito la succión y la bajada del nectar. Es fácil de limpiar y se ajusta muy bien a la ventana la ventosa. Lo recomiendo mucho

This is a good feeder, like it as we live in a windy area. The suction cup holds it well, even when full.

The bees can not reach the solution. Easy cleaning, hummers love that it has a resting step at each feeding station.
