The Hummingbirds have migrated back to Massachusetts. I put my feeders out the end of April. I make my own Hummingbird sugar water.(Nectar) Its a very simple recipe. Also I put out oranges and grape jelly for the Orioles,Catbirds and Red-Bellied Woodpeckers.

Homemade Hummingbird Nectar ~ Sugar Water!

Enough for 2 Hummingbird feeders

2 cups water
Bring to a boil~ Take about 3 minutes in the microwave
After the water comes to a boil
add:
½ c Sugar
Use a wire whisk and stir until dissolved
I make mine in the morning
Let it cool off
Then fill the “Clean Feeders”
To Clean the Feeders:
I use Distilled White Vinegar
Fill the Feeders with some Vinegar and Hot Water
Use a bottle brush to clean the feeder
Rinse well
Clean feeders twice a week even if they are not empty.
Cut the recipe in half if they are not drinking it all.
Do not add red food coloring to the water.
