WBU High Perch Hummingbird Feeder
Hummingbirds’ Migration Marathon
Well, as crazy as it sounds, that’s what
some hummingbirds are doing right now.
The next couple of months are your best
opportunity to see hummingbirds. Adult
hummingbirds are now joined by a horde
of juveniles as they head south to Central
America and their winter territories, some
traveling thousands of miles.
It’s estimated that more than seven million
Ruby-throated Hummingbirds return to the
tropics each winter, along with six million
Rufous, three million Broad-tailed, and
millions of other individuals of various
hummingbird species.
En route to their destination,
hummingbirds will take part in an eating
binge that is unmatched at any other time
of the year. A high-calorie diet is important
to build fat reserves for their migratory
trip. So be sure to have your hummingbird
feeders filled with a nectar solution.
Bird banding studies indicate that, with
very few exceptions, the hummingbirds
visiting your feeders on a late-migration
day are completely replaced by a new
wave of migrants within 24 hours.
To estimate the number of hummingbirds
using your feeders during migration,
multiply times five. For example, if you
see 10 hummingbirds at your feeder at
one time, you will have about 50 passing
through your yard that day.
Visit us soon, and we’ll make sure you
have everything you need to enjoy these
miniature migrating marathoners.

Keep Your Birds Cool During the Heat Wave
Two-Tiered Lilypad Birdbath
With hummingbird migration in full force, what can you do to further enjoy the most
exciting and captivating birds to visit your yard? Improve the view, offer multiple
feeders and take a closer look.
Improve the View
• Get a closer view of hummingbirds with our Decorative Window Hummingbird
Feeder, or bring your exisitng hummingbird feeders closer to your window with an
Advanced Pole System® or hummingbird pole.
• Get clearer views of ALL the visiting hummingbirds with any WBU Hummingbird
Feeder. Our tray-style feeders don’t block the view (gravity-fed bottle feeders block
views).
• Our High Perch™ Hummingbird Feeder features a high perch that allows
hummingbirds to comfortably rest. Longer perching/sitting times at the feeder
provide better, longer views of the birds.
Multiple Feeders: Ban the Bully!
• Hummingbirds, particularly adult males, can be very feisty and aggressive when
defending their territories. Multiple feeders, spread throughout your yard, will
encourage more hummingbirds to visit and keep bullies at bay.
• The more feeders you offer and the more spread out they are, the more difficult
it is for a protective hummingbird to defend all the feeders. Others, like females or
even juveniles, will be able to eat more often, perhaps staying longer to feed or
rest at feeders.
Take a Closer Look
• Watch hummingbirds’ tongues as they move in and out of the mouth (up to 12
times per second) to lap up nectar.
• Catch a glimpse of their tiny feet. Hummingbirds have very small feet that are
primarily used for preening and perching.
• Look for yellow pollen, from foraging at flowers, on hummingbirds’ foreheads.
• Watch how they fan their tail at one another, dart at one another or even fly in a
pendulum-style arch at one another. All are forms of physical communication.
The varied depths in this 2-tiered birdbath will make all of
your birds comfortable, from the littlest chickadee to big
blue jays. Durable cast aluminum with a bronze finish.
Several other models of cast aluminum baths are
also available.
Butterfly Meadow Birdbath
Our nature-inspired clay birdbaths are a beautiful way to
provide water for your birds. The pedestals are encircled
with designs that include grasses, flowers and birds.
Unlike most pottery products, these high-fired clay pieces
may be left outside during the winter as long as they are
placed on a bed of gravel or on a patio stone.
WBU Mini Mister
Remember running through the yard sprinkler to cool off?
Well, the Mini-Mister is a sprinkler for your birds! Secure
the Mini-Mister tubing to a tree, bush, trellis, birdbath,
etc., attach to a garden hose and enjoy watching the
birds. Depending on where you attach the mister, birds
may fly through the mist or leaf bathe by flapping their
wings among the water-laden leaves of a tree or shrub.
