Hummingbirds are back

And with them comes the first batch of hummingbird nectar. I have been making my own for a couple of years now. Much easier then running out to the store to buy the powdered product.

Use the following proportion:1 part regular white sugar to 4 parts water.

Example: 1 cup sugar, 4 cups water
1. Boil the water.
2. Add sugar and stir until dissolved.
3. Let cool.
4. Fill hummingbird feeder
5. Refrigerate in a designated hummingbird feeder pitcher

Thats it thats all. Sit back and enjoy the beauty of their flight.
