Good feeder, AFTER several modifications.,

This review is from: Opus 467-3 Plastic 16-Ounce Oriole Feeder (Lawn & Patio)
I've never had an oriole feeder before. When I purchased this one and hung it up, it tipped to the side and leaked. So I modified the end of a half-inch diameter pole that I already had and mounted the feeder onto the pole. That took care of the tilting problem. Then I had ants crawl up the pole and fill the feeder. So I modified a hanging ant guard into a pole-mounted ant guard. That took care of the ants. Then, LO AND BEHOLD, I had an oriole come and feed.........off of my HUMMINGBIRD feeder. A couple of times he sat on this oriole feeder and looked at it but he didn't know what to do with it. He must have moved on because I only saw him for a day. Then I decided to take a black sharpie marker and color some very small round 'faux' or fake feeding holes over the slits in the rubber orange slices so that if I got another oriole he might know what to do with the feeder and stick his beak into the slit opening thinking it was a round opening like the hummingbird feeders have. The trick did eventually work.........with a hummingbird. She came and had a good look at it and was fooled, she drank from the oriole feeder and I have photos to prove it (see the image gallery for this product). So....I'm still waiting on an oriole to feed from this feeder. Sheesh! what a pain!

Doesn't Really Work,

Unfortunately this Oriole feeder did not work - the Orioles were attracted to it but weren't able to eat from it. I have another birder friend who got the same negative result. I recommend the Perky Pet 449-2 which the Orioles love and its easy to refill.

poor design,

This review is from: Opus 467-3 Plastic 16-Ounce Oriole Feeder (Lawn & Patio)
Oriole feeders with a narrow neck and bulbous shaped container are impossible to clean. So I looked for an alternative, and this looked like it would work. It was easy to clean, but it lists to one side when hung, and the fluid runs out. The important judgement came from the birds. Before I hung this one there were many orioles using the old one. Not one would use the new one. It hung for 10 days with no use and finally I took it down and rehung the old one. Within minutes the orioles were back. I'm still looking for a good, easy to clean oriole feeder that the birds will use.
