'Anna's Humming birds' are what we have here most often. I make my Sugar water stronger in the winter so it won't freeze up! Works great and its good for the Birds too gives them More Energy for the Cold weather.
Hi - I have heard it is NOT a good idea to deviate from the 1 to 4 ratio of sugar to water when making hummingbird food.

PS - what ever happened to the lady from TN who posted pics of all her hummingbirds? I think her name was Dorothy?? She had hummers as her avatar.
