Welcome to hummingbirds.net, the source for information on attracting, watching, feeding, and studying North American hummingbirds.
Attracting
Feeders , and About sections. I will try to answer other questions by email , but please browse this site before writing. Don't forget to tell me where you live, or I probably won't be able to help you; 17 species of hummingbirds breed in North America, each one is different, and location is the best clue to identification. HTML email might not get past my spam filters, so plain text is best. Before you write, understand that it's almost impossible for me to guess why you have fewer/more/zero hummingbirds at your feeder. A look at the Attracting and Feeders sections should give you some ideas. Please let me know of online hummer resources I've missed. If you wish to submit something you've written yourself, attach it to email , and I'll be happy to review it for possible publication.

Unpave the Way for Hummingbirds
When Your Habitat is Complete, Put Your Site on the Map How to Create a Haven for Hummingbirds!
Hummingbirds rely on nectar as a major part of their diet. You can attract hummingbirds to your yard and help them along on their long journey by providing a hummingbird feeder with sugar water and by planting a hummingbird garden to provide natural nectar plants too! Fill 'er Up!
The best solution to fill your hummingbird feeder is a simple granulated sugar boiled water mixture, prepared according to the following directions. (Remember: NEVER use honey or artificial sweeteners! , Honey spoils rapidly and can become poison. Artifical sweeteners provide no nutritional value (i.e. calories), so a hummer may drink it but receive no nutrition and thus starve. Food coloring is not recommended eitherstudies have shown this may be harmful to the birds.) Here's the recipe for the sugar water:
  • The basic mixture is 1 part ordinary white granulated sugar to 4 parts water.

Debbie's Tips For Attracting And Feeding Hummingbirds
Nectar Recipe
I have found that this is the best recipe for making your own nectarI feel the birds prefer it over the various instant mixes.
1 Part Sugar
4 Parts Water
Boil 1-2 Minutes Never use honey or artificial sweeteners! Honey ferments easily, and can cause sores in a hummers mouth. Artificial sweeteners have no food value. DO NOT use red food coloring in your solution, as this could be harmful to your hummers. No testing has been done on the effects dye has on birds. Most feeders have red on them and that should be enough. Back to top of page Feeder Care Your hummingbird feeders need to be cleaned, and nectar changed every 3-4 daysmore often in hotter weather. If you see black spots inside your feeder this is mold and you will need to scrub it out with a good bottle brush, but if you can't reach it with a bottle brush you can add some sand with water and shake the feeder to remove the mold. You should never use harsh detergent to clean your feeder. Rinse out each time you change your nectar with hot water, and if you do this on a regular basis you should not have a problem with mold inside the feeder. Don't fill the feeder more than half full, because they won't be able to drink it all before it will need to be changed. Back to top of page Successful Tips To Attracting Hummers To Your Yard!

Hummingbirds
How do hummingbirds eat?
Hummingbirds are very small birds with a high metabolism. A great deal of energy is spent flying, so they must feed almost constantly. Hummingbirds can consume up to 50% of their weight in sugar (nectar solution) each day. They usually feed on nectar and insects. Hummingbirds actually lap up the nectar with their tongues. A lot of people think that hummingbirds have a hollow tongue like a straw. Their tongues do have grooves on the sides that collect nectar. When the bill constricts, the hummingbird can swallow the nectar from flowers and feeders. Hummingbirds are able to perch and will do so at feeders regularly. Because they fly so much, they have poorly developed feet. They can barely walk at all. The hummingbird is much more comfortable in flight.
Feeding Hummingbirds
It is important to keep any nectar feeder clean and filled with fresh solution.

The British Columbia Folklore Society
Hummingbirds in Folklore and Legend.
The American anthropologist Dr. George M. Foster, in , (1949) Maria Leach (ed.) New York, 1972, p.510 writes HUMMINGBIRD: A minor character in American Indian folktale and mythology. The northern Paiute Indians [U.S. Great Basin area] say that Hummingbird once filled his pants full of seeds and started on a journey to see what was beyond the sun. He ate only one seed a day, but had to turn back because his food gave out. He didn't see anything. In eastern Brazil, Hummingbird is the character who hoarded water so that the people had none at all until the Caingang and Botocudo Indians released it.
Philip Drucker, on page 451 of The Northern and Central Nootkan Tribes [on the west coast of Vancouver Island] Smithsonian Institution Bureau of American Ethnology Bulletin 144, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, 1951 wrote Pages 472-549 of The Report of the 70th Meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science
Today the Skqomic are usually referred to as the Squamish. They live in an area to the north and north-west of Vancouver on the coastal mainland of B.C.

Attracting Hummingbirds
One good way to enjoy the company of hummingbirds is planting a hummingbird garden . In addition to providing them a natural diet, a hummer garden is an excellent way to attract birds to your nearby feeder : since hummingbirds feed by sight on regularly-followed routes - called traplines - their inquisitive nature will quickly lead them to investigate any possible new source of food. A hummer garden is also a great way to capture the birds on film or video, and makes a much nicer backdrop for your photos than the typical plastic feeder. If you plan carefully and select a variety of plants that flower at successively later dates, you will be rewarded with happy hummers throughout the season.
Using pesticides around hummingbird plants is a very bad idea. Killing garden pests will also eliminate the small insects hummingbirds rely upon for protein. In addition, hummers might directly ingest pesticides sprayed onto flowers, which could sicken or kill the birds. Remember: if you wouldn't eat it yourself, don't feed it to a hummingbird!
