Are they still there? I am also in Hollywood and had 3 for the first time but have not seen them for about a week now.

'Ocala,
He might just need more time to figure it out!
I have had good luck by having some Testors Yellow model paint handy and add a few streaks of yellow from the port up and out in the direction of the molded petals. I have been told it helps them want to explore the port since it helps make these, often sterile' molded flowers actually look more like a flower.
Just an idea and it seems to work on dish type feeders.
Use acrylic paint, works better on the plastic!

I came down from New York... I would put out a glass dish on a stand with orange slices. The orioles would come all of the time. Haven't tried it yet here but it should work.
