Summary

The Microfeeder is a new innovation in hummingbird feeders. It has two special features that make this design superior to others. The first thing you might observe, is that this feeder is not open like most feeders. The bowl of this feeder has a tight fitting lid to keep out wasps and bees, which usually get stuck in normal humming bird feeders. The lid also makes this feeder rain proof and easy to fill. The most important feature of this particular design is the collection box. Most hummingbird feeders will hold sugar water once the birds have drank it down to a certain level. This causes mold and algae to grow rapidly inside the feeder. When liquid is left in a regular feeder for a long time, the mold and algae become very hard to clean off. But the Microfeeder uses the collection box design to drain every drop of liquid from the bowl. Also, the Microfeeder is designed so that even when the bowl is less than halfway full, there is still sugar water near tips of the flowers. This makes it easy for the humming birds to drink.

The Microfeeder can be placed in several different locations. It can be nailed to a tree or attached to a window. It can easily be adjusted for use with suction cups or double sided tape. Print one today and enjoy the beauty and grace of hummingbirds!
