Default Important info for your humming bird feeders



To those asking what is the formula .......please use the one Bev
posted. 4 waters to 1 sugar. In several of my humming bird books they
definitely state in bold letters using anything stronger ( sugar wise)
can damage their little livers....... 4 to 1 is what is listed in
everyone of my books.

I'm telling you guys. Plant flowers and they will do the work.
Then you get to enjoy the flowers while the hummers eat!
A pony pack of blue salvia is a real draw!

Will do immediately. I surely don't want to hurt these little hummers.

Thanks : )
And thanks to all of you for all of your suggestions
We now have 5 hummers and when I started writing this--we had 3: )
Kinda thinking we have a new in the making family here--as we assume
there are 2 mommies now--they are the busiest.
Yes, Ginger, Nervous Ninnie STILL checks the Butterflies out.
AND Yes, the Baby STILL hides in the Glad blossoms--the next one opened
and they are having a ball with them and with dancing amongst
the roses : )
Butterfly (they come very often now)

My dad has had a couple of hummingbird nests in his yard
the last year or so. It is amazing to see a 78 year old
man showing it off to the grandkids (and great grands)
Actually he showed it off to everyone. It was a real treat
to see him so excited about something.
