Now I Can See My Hummingbird Feeders From My Chair-- SO EXCITED :)

My husband gave me such a gift! He knows I love the hummers and hear the wings and try to get to the window in time. Half the time if I even do make it, they see me and take off. SO.....he figured out a way for me to see them from my favorite chair in the living room. My chair does not face the windows at all. Happy me!
This is one of the feeders I wanted to see, with the nest helper on top
This is the other one, made from a candlestick with a flower inside, and sitting in water to keep out the ants
Here is one of the mirrors from the front, slightly tilted. It stays this way and you really don't notice that it is slightly tilted at all.
He used one nail to hang it, and then added a screw to be the "adjuster". It took a bit of fussing with it to get the angle right, but HEY it is WORTH IT!
Here is the other to see the other feeder
And the same screw arrangement in the back to get it right.
Here I see it from my chair
And here I accidentally caught a hummer feeding!
The white mirror shows me this feeder, so I can both feeders at one time. Now WHAT could be better than that? :)
