Very nice. I would love to get a hummingbird feeder, however, my wife is dead set against it. Reason being is that she feels that the birds become reliant on them and if we stop feeding them, they will starve. I do not know if this is true, but, I guess it does not really matter as there is no changing her mind.
That notion is pure nonsense. Look up hummingbirds on internet ornithology sites for factual information on bird diets and behavior and leave the old wives tales to old wives.
