Default Lake Girl - Hummingbird Feeder

The Baltimore Oriole (or Northern Oriole) will drink the hummingbird feeder dry. I asked at the "bird store" the reason for this and was told that the hummingbird nectar is sweeter than the oranges we put out for the orioles.
Also if the feeder is placed where it can be blown by the wind it will spill out.
