HUMMINGBIRDS
ReplyDeleteNow that spring is almost here you will want to check your hummingbird feeders and get them ready for our beautiful little friends. Check on the link here to see when you can expect the hummingbirds to show up in your area. (listed by state) http://www.birds-n-garden.com/hummingbirds_spring_arrival_dates.html#T
ALSO: some will purchase the ready mixed red liquid "food" to feed the hummingbirds, but if you wish to make your own (in case you find yourself running out) mix four (4) parts water with one (1) part sugar. Boiling this mixture for one minute will help the mixture to last and keep longer in the feeder. Remember to cool your sugar water mixture completly prior to fillng the feeding container.
