Handsome devil.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful, no words can describe.
ReplyDeleteOMG! The bird is beautiful, and the feeder is great!
ReplyDeleteNice! And it reminds me I need to refill my hummer feeder; the water is old!
ReplyDeleteOh I love this feeder. Mine is soooo sticky and dirty...faded from the sun. But it is well used and the hummies dont seem to care! I will be looking this fall for clearance feeders...lol. This one is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThat's a perfect photo, Philllip!-Randy
ReplyDeleteHi Phillip... I have to confess I really wish hummingbird feeders did not exist... always see it as feeding "fast food" to our little friends. Kind of like a sleazy fast food dive, and I have never understood how folks enjoy seeing such a beauty sipping from plastic. Your hummingbird feeder is a thing of utter beauty however, and from the looks of it, you keep it very clean. Is this something you made yourself? Timeless photo! Beautiful! Brava!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful feeder. It has an antique look. Don't think I've seen one like that locally.

Fantastic photo!
ReplyDeleteI do love that bottle on your feeder. We rarely use the feeders in midsummer with so many flowers in bloom (we use it in early spring and late fall). Is the bottle antique? Did you make this yourself? I'd love to have a few of those!

Beautiful shot Phillip. I love the feeder. Hummingbirds are just so magical.
ReplyDeleteGreat picture. I also love that feeder, I'm tired of looking at my plastic ones. I want a pretty one like that! :)
ReplyDeleteI can see I'm not the only one who wants more info on your fabulous feeder. Please do a follow-up post. Pretty please.
ReplyDeleteHey everybody, the feeder is from Wal-Mart!
ReplyDeleteYou are joking! Really... well there is a reason to go to Wal Mart... if one must have a feeder... but surely you are joking... is it glass?
ReplyDeleteWal-Mart??? Noooooo! I may have to go, just for that ($12.88). It isn't available online, dangit.
ReplyDeleteCarol, it is made of glass.
ReplyDeleteCracking photo Phillip
ReplyDeleteHi Phillip - I thought you deserved a "One Lovely Blog" award! If you feel like playing along, check out my post today (Aug 6) to see what you should do next!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Deborah!!!
ReplyDeleteI know it came from Wal Mart because I have one just like it and another beautiful red glass one that also came from Wal Mart. Awesome photo!
ReplyDeleteGreat feeder! I received one as a gift. It is so pretty. I also saw them sold at Agway as well as WalMart.
