It is really adorable as in the picture. I used a chopstick to make a hole. Pouring water is tough for me. So I used a small funnel for cosmetics. Before putting the tube in the soil, put a thumb at the outlet, turn the globe upside down and slide the thumb from the outlet slowly. Few drops come out from the tube, but very few due to a water pressure or gravity(?) anyway... After checking few drops come out from the tube, put it in the hole in the soil. I also watered the soil after putting the tube in order to seal and stablise it.
It seems it takes a longer to absorb if one makes an angle. I put two globes in the same pot. I put one of the globes upright and the water remains 1/3 of the globe after three days. I gave an angle for the other and it still hold 3/4 of the water.
It is not a fault of this product, but for all this sort of plant nannies. We cannot predict how many days watering lasts or the speed of watering. One of the globe absorbed really quickly and really scared. But it slowed all of sudden and remains the water level. So, it can hold water for a couple days/weeks, but cannot predict.

It works but not for 10 days
It would be nice if the water resivor was larger, I don't think you get 10 days of watering. Dirt gets stuck higher up in the tube and if you aren't careful it will prevent water from flowing out. The best way to get the dirt out is with the sprayer on the sink. But so far it appears to be working! And the birds a much cuter than the other bottle options out there!

The birds look beautiful in my planters! They are very easy to fill and use, it is helpful that a funnel for filling and some small tubes to prevent the dirt from clogging the tubes were included. I do have to fill them daily but I do know that it is the potting soil that I used. When I was watering with a can the water would just go right through the soil. The birds really help keep the soil moist. I know that I will not have to fill them daily when I get better soil.
