WE ARE ENTERING THE HEART OF HUMMINGBIRD SEASON

Fledgling Hummingbirds are showing up at nectar feeders right about now! Natural nectar and insect resources are starting to wane. It's the season and these tiny marvels are hungry... Hummingbirds eat 8 times their body weight every day in insects and nectar. Now would be a perfect time to get another Hummingbird feeder
For example, window hummingbird feeders bring them up close enough to see details and behaviors you might not have noticed before. With our hummingbird feeders, you can see the bird’s tongue reach the nectar and create ripples! You may be able to observe the streaked throat of a juvenile male hummingbird. You can see their teeny feet and notice the molting breast feathers on the worn female.

Keep your hummingbird feeders cleaned and filled with the nourishment they need. Clean your feeder when you change your nectar. You can use mild soapy water to clean it out, but be sure to rinse well. If mold is present, soak your feeder in a 10% bleach solution, then rinse well before filling. Remember to change the nectar every few days in this hot weather—the fresh nectar recipe: 4 parts water to 1 part white table sugar. Do not use honey, other sweeteners or raw sugars. Other sugars can have trace minerals that may be bad for hummingbirds. Do NOT use red dye in your nectar.
