Oh wow! You have a ton of hummys!

Holy cow, that is quite the hummer cafeteria you got going there. I only have 2 feeders but see them used frequently. I think they have a nest in our cedar trees because the female is constantly coming and going from there.

Ratio is 4 c. water to 1 c. sugar - NO FOOD COLORING
I have 2 pair that are here all summer. I had 4 pair last year. |
Wow, I thought I had a lot with three. They keep me busy filling them up every other day and I am buying sugar by the 10 lbs bags now! I have about twenty at a time feeding off ours! They are so beautiful and fun to watch! We are trying to figure out how to create a mister so they can run through it. They love it when it rains.

Awesome thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing . I love humminbirds. Wish i had more. Not many this year.
|
I use that ratio. I mix 4 cups of water to 1 cup sugar at a time. My hummers feed throughout the day and a lot just before dark. I guess they're filling up for the night.
Oops, sorry for the double post. |
Thank you so much for sharing these photos. We haven't had hardly any hummers and only a couple of goldies. I really enjoyed seeing them in your photos.

We only saw one earlier in June. Haven't seen any since.
