I guess the title sums up my question.
Jelly feeder like THIS
one. I'd like to hang it near my house, but my kids hate bee's and I don't want to attract them.

I have also read that the birds have been known to become trapped in the jar type feeder. I just put my jelly in small bowls or on top of the orange halves I set out.

They are Oriole killers. When the jelly level in the jar gets low, they crawl in there to get more and can't get out, dying from exhaustion trying to back out. Mitch- ____...^.^...____

canonloader Cream of the Crop More info | Jun 18, 2009 11:59 | #6 There was a thread about these things awhile back. It would be hard to take if one of your birds died from something like this. It's really kind of obvious when you see one and think about what could happen. Mitch- ____...^.^...____
