Here in California we enjoy seeing hummingbirds all year long. They are not shy like so many other birds. As a matter of fact, we have one of our hummingbird feeders hanging next to our kitchen table window. We watch them feeding every time we sit down to eat!
Recipe for Hummingbird food:
- 4 cups of filtered water
- 1 cup of granulated sugar
Bring clean water to a boil, stir in sugar to dissolve. Let cool, then fill bird feeders.
Keep remaining nectar refrigerated.
This is an easy recipe that you can make quickly at home.
Never add food coloring- if it's not good for you, it's not good for the Hummingbirds!
Check the feeder each week for mold. Feeders can get dirty, especially in the summer heat. Wash with a drop or two of bleach and warm water, rinse well.
