    I have had many visitors to my grape jam...cardinal, sparrows, finches, woodpeckers, Orioles and now the Chickadee...

    I think the word must be getting around that yours is the best jam on offer. I wonder what bird will be next to try it out.

    It is nice when they appreciate what one does for them.

    Sherry I love your jam feeder. Where did you get it? Those chickadees are quite the clowns.

    I ordered the feeder through Duncraft...I have had two of them for many years. A regular size votive cup fits in the jelly/jam holders. I have picked up extras at thrift stores so I could change them often when they were empty....in the two area with just a point sticking out ,you can put oranges. I think the oranges were attracting flys so I took them off. I am looking for a feeder that I can just put oranges on and keep it away from the jelly/jam.

    Tooty2shoes...you cannot buy Duncraft items anymore from stores, you can just order them over the internet.
