Hi Dave.I get green with envy when I see photos from people that have so many that it looks like flies at a picnic.
I put my feeder up around the last 2 weeks of April and this guy showed up on May1st.I don't buy the mix.I use one part sugar to 4 parts water and boil the mixture and then add a couple of drops of food coloring.Studies have been done that prove that many h-birds return yearly to the same feeders.Hummers love red coloring so maybe some red flowers in the area may help.--charliezap
