The ordering and shipping was great. Got it in great time.
However there were absolutely NO instructions anywhere as to how to mount the hummingbird feeder on to the main unit. I had to Google for directions.

Update - Never Received Item
Never received item. Ordered on May 31, still not tracking with USPS after nine days. Customer Service unresponsive.
I originally wrote that review after seeing no tracking of my order, which was to be a gift. After two weeks, Birdfy kindly refunded my payment. I then ordered the same metal feeder from Amazon, which arrived in three days. Exactly three weeks after placing the original order, it started tracking with USPS, and showed up the same day. I decided to keep that feeder, and contacted Customer Service to arrange for re-payment.
Except for the very late delivery of the original order, the experience turned out to be a positive one. Customer Service stepped up, and was very responsive and accommodating.
I have now purchased seven Birdfy feeders in all, three for my home, and four as gifts for others. I have the metal feeder, bamboo feeder, and the two-camera hummingbird feeder. I thoroughly enjoy them.
The metal feeder is a higher quality than the others, sturdy construction that has held up to the weather well. The bamboo feeder looks nice, but it starting to warp a bit, looking a bit "rustic" going into its third year. The hummingbird feeder is the newest addition, about two months old. Have only seen one hummingbird so far, but still early in their season. The other feeders consistently show over 150 birds a day. Constantly refilling!
The AI identification is acceptable, but used to be much better. About a year ago, the two feeders starting identifying many birds generically as "animals" or just "birds", even though it was clear from the camera footage what species they were. I consistently use safflower seed to deter squirrels, so there are few feeders that are not birds.
Again, a very good ownership experience overall. Very enjoyable, and highly recommended.

Birdfy offered to provide a new lense for a cloudy lense
When my Birdfy camera lense became cloudy, I initially tried to rub it with a special cloth, but I was unable to clean the lense with the cloth wipe. After letting the Birdfy support team know what happened, I was contacted regarding getting a replacement lense! However, before going through the necessary steps to obtain the new lense, I decided to try using the Nikon LENSPEN cleaning system which worked beautifully. So a new lense was not needed.

Hi Edith,
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We're glad our support team was quick to reach out and offer a replacement lens — that's exactly the kind of service we always aim to provide.
It's also wonderful to hear that the Nikon LENSPEN did the trick and got your camera lens looking crystal clear again! That's a great tip for other Birdfy users too.
