Negative Positive
Title: Not recommended
Review: I used this feeder for three months and the hooded orioles were happy with it. They figured out the bee guard quickly. Other visitors were chestnut backed chickadees and humming birds who came to lick the nectar at the seams where the two part base is screwed together and lick the droplets clinging to the base.The tab on the top of the container prevents it from sitting flat on the counter for filling, so put it into a bowel upside down. Cleaning is easy, just fill it with a weak solution of bleach.I found that the best way to tighten the container and two part base is to screw them together upside down. Screw the top half of the base to the container and then screw on the bottom half of the base so you can press your thumb against the knuckle of the perch hinges. Getting it tight may be difficult for those with arthritis or weak wrists.A product that's designed to hold water and leaks rates only one star. I may buy a different feeder for next summer's orioles.
