Feeders are okay, but the real joy comes from watching hummingbirds feed at flowers. In my experience they’re big fans of fuchsias, and I’ve also seen them at fireweed.
Edit: dropped an h, misplaced an s
Hummingbirds ignored my feeder this year. Ants ended up finding a path to it, so I took it down. :-/
We found that ant moats like these are great for keeping the ants off our Hummingbird feeders. You can find how-to’s online for DIY versions too.
Oh amazing! Thanks for sharing, I hope the hummingbirds come back.
I set one up with my feeder and I saw a hummingbird on it yesterday. Thanks for the advice!
Excellent! I’m glad I could help.
Uh?
ELI5 please?
my guess is just that they know a lot about birds so they know why the hummingbirds aren’t interested. Here’s their website https://www.allaboutbirds.org/news/feeding-hummingbirds/
Another great way to feed these little gems…
I hope I find someone who talks to me the way this organization talks about hummingbirds 🥺
Only your mom, grandma or auntie will ever call you a little gem.
If they haven’t, I’ll just say now you’re a lil’ gem.
Okay okay I’m sorry, please show your dad the pictures I need to know.
I only have 2 because they live in the nearby tree and attack any other hummingbirds that try to come for a drink.
This is the most devastating insult I’ve ever read
Nope, I had lots this year. It’s been lovely
