Can you use those small animal water bottles; you know bottle, rubber stopper and small metal or glass tube? I recall someone saying that humming birds will even feed from a saucer, but I want something I can hang up. I know we also talked about feeder formulae in this group, but I didn't save the postings, so I would appreciate any recipes you have. Been pretty dead in this group recently, I hope you're all out somewhere exotic looking at quetzales or aracaris. Darwin O.V. Alonso alonso@boltz.ucsf.edu U.C. San Francisco, or wk.
