With the spring here I put out our hummingbird feeder again. Unfortunately its about 5 years old now and has not weathered well. I decided to spring for a new one and maybe a couple more to put in the trees.
I always START with Amazon in my buying searches knowing that's the most I'll have to pay for whatever I'm looking for. Once I identify exactly what I what and note their price I search the interwebby. So this is what I found:
Perfect for me as I wanted something they couldn't land on so I could photograph them in mid air. Then I did an internet search and I found the exact same thing at 1/4 the price PLUS they threw in some 'nectar'. Same free shipping as Amazon.
Item # Description Price Qty Cost
GS-104672 Gardman Orange Hummingbird Feeder 4" x 7" high $5.04 x 4 = $20.16
GS-107307 Sweet-Nectar Dye-Free Hummingbird Nectar Concentrate 8.5 oz $0.00 x 4 = $0.00
The internet, the great equalizer!
