"One of my least favorite parts of dealing with hummingbird feeders is having to fill, refill, and clean the reservoir. Bird Buddy is the only smart hummingbird feeder I've tried whose reservoir simply unscrews from the bottom. No having to turn it upside down and risk spilling, no having to use specialty brushes. Bird Buddy's app even gives you an alert when it's time to swap out the nectar."
"Speaking of the app, Bird Buddy's is the best in the game, with plenty of user-friendly features that are accessible without a subscription, including 5 MB photos and 2K video. (Though a subscription, priced at $7.50 a month or $90 a year, will unlock higher 2K Ultra resolution, AI identification, the ability to share live streams, and more.) The app isn't perfect, as I did find times that hummingbirds visited and did not register in my "postcards," but it's otherwise exceedingly well-designed and easy to find the features you're looking for."
Hummingbird feeders provide simple, close-up viewing without the mess and pests common to seed feeders. The Bird Buddy feeder features a reservoir that unscrews from the bottom to avoid spills and specialty brushes, and the app sends alerts when nectar needs swapping. The app delivers 5 MB photos and 2K video without subscription; a $7.50/month or $90/year subscription adds 2K Ultra, AI identification, live-stream sharing, and more. The app can miss some visits but is otherwise easy to use. The feeder includes a rooftop solar panel and operates on 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi only. A limited-time $53 discount is available.
