Lily glad your hummers are back,I think Ive got 4 now,hoping its 2 of each not sure yet.I wish I would have know panisonic made an 18xlumix,I have a 10x lumix and I love it,great little camera.OK now here is my DH made ant mote,water bottle cut in 1/2 you will use the top 1/2,take the cap off drill a hole in the cap a bit larger than the diamiter of the feeder pole,mine are shepards hooks,rerod, put the cap back on the bottle 1/2 slide it up on the pole from the bottom,now use some silacone to seal it up in the cap and bottle neck,let it dry a day then fill with water .We have had them in place for 3 yrs now,not pretty but it works holds a nice amount of water,the finches drink out of them too.We moved the ant mote down farther,if I would paint the out side of it wouldnt look so bad.it works and it dosent dryout everyday
