I received from UPS today two more of the Aspects Hummzinger 16 oz hummingbird feeders. This gives me one of the 8 oz and three of the 16 oz. I really enjoy these feeders. In a place where we have problems with ants, they have ant moats. We are supposed to have a storm tonight that will rain until Monday and they have four overflow valves on each feeder so the hummingbird food is kept undiluted.

However, I have only seen three hummers today in the backyard. These were only there for twenty minutes or so. I guess word will get out (I hope anyway) and soon all the hummers that The Boss (dominant Anna's Hummingbird male) has driven away will come back (or at least some of them...LOL).

Has anyone else had this sort of experience when adding feeders?

Thanks,

Chuck
