I had no idea they did that! No sugar maples here, but lots of vine maples and red alder.They feed on the sap of trees such as sugar maple when needed.

I should probably invest in a few of those. I've heard of people wrapping the feeders in Christmas lights too, to just add a minimal amount of heat, but I have the flat ring shaped Aspects feeders and wrapping those seems too tricky.
That's the way I used to do it until I saw these heaters. It is just light heat and I'm not sure they would work in an Arctic blast, but so far, so good.I should probably invest in a few of those.

The way I've dealt with freezing is to have double the number of feeders ready to go, and swap them out if they freeze. The hummers are quick to complain at me when I go to replace the frozen feeders with unfrozen ones.
Yeah I couldn't see them working in truly cold climates, but typical winters here don't dip too far below freezing, so just a little heat would be enough.That's the way I used to do it until I saw these heaters.

It looks kind of similar to a heated chicken drinker base. I will have to get one and give it a try. Thank you, @JedJackson!That's the way I used to do it until I saw these heaters. It is just light heat and I'm not sure they would work in an Arctic blast, but so far, so good.
Yep. I don't know what would work for really cold winter weather.Yeah I couldn't see them working in truly cold climates, but typical winters here don't dip too far below freezing, so just a little heat would be enough.
