Amazon.com Review
While plants, flowers, and insects naturally provide food for our feathered friends, a well-stocked oriole feeder encourages more frequent visits. Opus's egg-shaped feeder holds 32 ounces and provides four feeding stations, to allow as many orioles to dine as possible. Adjustable perches offer two different perch heights to accommodate all nine species of orioles. A patented bee guard keeps pests out and secures food. A convenient hanging hole permits owners to hang the feeder by a special stand or on tree branches. Opus even includes an oriole identification chart to inform bird enthusiasts. To attract orioles to the feeder, place it in a sheltered southeast location in the yard or garden. Orioles also enjoy dining on fresh oranges and grape or apple jelly. Keep the feeder stocked year-round to nourish any birds that linger through a cold winter, and help tired birds rebuild strength after the long flight north in spring. To deter pesky squirrels, hang the oriole feeder from tree branches as far from the trunk as possible and at least four feet above the ground. For best results, handwash the feeder with equal parts water and white vinegar--this will help protect birds from bacteria and disease. Avoid chemical cleaners that might poison birds. When shipped, this item weighs two pounds. --Jessica Reuling

 Big Expectations August 31, 2010

We were having problems with bees taking over the hummingbird/oriole feeders & this sounded like a great solution. Unfortunately, the unit leaked around the bottom seam. The bees loved it...
 oriole feeder with bee guard July 16, 2010
Cris L. Smith
great product. Easy to clean and holds lots of nectar. The orioles took a few days to figure it out but they eventually got it. Great, great product. Thanks Perky Pet!
Bees In -- Birds Gone July 3, 2010
Lisa Williams (Bisbee, AZ USA)
I purchased this item based on its claim of the patented bee guards keeping bees out. First off it does not look like the picture, the drinking holes are round and have a small button inside that the orioles will push down to feed. Unfortunately, the bees learned within about an hour how to push the button down. They then go in to drink, can't get back out and die. The entire bottom of the feeder was full of bees within 24 hours of hanging the feeder. Does not work as intended. And is definitely not the same product shown.
This Oriole Feeder Works !! June 14, 2010
David Bruce
This feeder not only works well, but it can be taken apart for cleaning purposes. It is better than the rest for those reasons.
Not the best feeder anymore May 29, 2010

Bought one of these feeders three years ago, worked super great so much easier than my last one, Loved it so much and so did the birds I bought a new one last week for my front yard, unfortunately dropped and broke my old one so I had to get another this week to replace it. For some reason where the pieces screw together at the base for easy cleaning leaks and the feeder is empty by morning. Both of them. It needs some sort of seal I would think. This is getting really expensive replacing feed every morning so I am going to look for another feeder.. Did not have this problem with the old one and it looked like it was the same design that's what is so funny about it.. I would look for another also, do not get this one until they fix what the problem is. You know when two will leak then they all will..
