Elaine and others - Here is a good links to information about hummingbirds and feeders:

I couldn't find the links I had read earlier about not using soap to clean them. I use water, vinegar, and a good baby bottle brush to clean mine. And I use the rice and vinegar method which works great for my hard to clean feeder!

Cathy - Great feeder! Congrats! Just remember, it may take some time for the hummers to find you. I used red ribbons/bows around my property. Someone told me to hang those colorful little wind catcher flags around the property too. Large and colorful things that they can see from the air. Many of you may remember my red solo cups! LOL! What a hoot! But ya just never know what they might spot as they are flying overhead! :-) And those solo cups might have worked and I have had hummers for a while before I actually spotted one! :-)
