Hummingbird Explosion!

This is the month to see tons of Hummingbirds at your feeds...
They are bringing their families. We got to see a special treat at our backyard feeder this week, it was really cool to see so many hummers flying in our yard! I have 3 feeders out but this one is their favorite.

Heres a post I did in March about HUMMINGBIRDS


Well I'm trying to upload a video but cant figure it out!

Butterflies Everywhere...

  1. Oh My!! Look at all those Hummingbirds!!

    Crazy!!

    My Mom LOVES them and refers to the birds that frequent her feeders, 'My birds'. (She lives in Alabama)

    I wonder if we have them in Portugal? I'll have to do some research.

  2. I love the feeding the wild birds, it makes me happy to see them at my feeders and I'm honored that they make my yard their home :)

    Hummm... I wonder if Portugal does have them? I bet you do. I bet you get really pretty ones, theres soooo many different kinds, we only get 1 kind here, The Ruby-throated hummingbird.

  3. What is the ratio of mixture that you use?

  4. 4 cups water to 1 part sugar... I fill my jug, shake it up, clean/fill feeders and refrigerate what I have left.

  5. Thanks I just refilled my feeder and they were buzzing by my ear waiting on me. I am going to make a note of the ratio and put it on my fridge. I always forget and have to google it.

    Have a nice weekend!
