First hummingbird of the season showed up today. I am making Star Gazers 3/1 food mix. Please post your pics.
Yup, 3 cups water- 1 cup sugar. Only for early spring and late Fall. 4/1 should be standard summer fare. If the hummers blow up, I'll blame Star Gazer.
Talked to better half this a.m. about getting ready, should be seeing them shortly...................
We had a black chin show up on March 25th. Lots of activity now with both black chins and broadtails. The real fun starts around the first of July when the rufus-tails show up. These little critters really make me smile.
We've had a bunch move through here already. They seem to taper off the feeders for a few weeks May-early June, not sure if they are nesting or other food sources? Might try the 3-1 mix today cause the current batch is starting to cloud up
