Hummingbird feeder
Just in time for May, I finished and hung this experimental hummingbird feeder — inspired as an answer to the age old problem: donuts are so fun to throw but seem to have no real use. Now let’s see if the hummingbirds like it. I would welcome your input! submitted by /u/Open_Cell_3447 to r/Pottery [link] [comments]

Hummingbird feeding guide
From a Licensed avian rehabilitator (specializes in hummingbird rescue and rehab): Hummingbird Nectar Recipe Please make your own hummingbird nectar 4 Cups of Boiled Water 1 Cup White Granulated Sugar Do not use raw or organic sugar, it contains iron Bring water to a boil, remove from heat, add sugar, stir very well & let cool. DO NOT use RED DYE, or store bought nectar. Please clean every 1-3 days. Do not add anything else. Important Hummingbird Information On hot or cold days, to maintain feeders, fill with less, more often. 70º-84°F (21º-28°C).... Clean every 3 days 85º-87°F (29º-30°C).... Clean every 2 days 88°-99°F (310-37°C).... Clean every single day Nectar can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one week. IMPORTANT: Never let your feeder become cloudy or moldy, bacteria and mold will kill. Always keep clean. Problem with Ants: Use an ant moat filled with water only. Never use Vaseline or oil based products on or around the feeder, ground or hooks. Feeding hummingbirds is a big responsibilty. If you don't have time to keep your feeders clean and fresh, just plant flowers. Hummingbird safety is always the first priority. If you find an injured bird find a local rehabber here: Animalhelpnow.com "The Hummingbird Whisperer" on Facebook is a great group, if you do Facebook.

Hummingbird Feeder Concerns
Based off a single comment from my husband last year, claiming he saw a hummingbird zoom by our front door, I immediately put up a feeder to encourage them. But the nectar level seems to go nowhere and even noticed mold growing inside it. Should I bail on this endeavor?

RE:Feeding the birds
I rarely see Bluebirds. We have a suction cup feeder on our kitchen bay window that I keep filled with sunflower seeds. We get Chickadees, Tufted Titmouse, Cardinals, Bluejays, and a few others. Occasionally a hummingbird will check it out but of course not for it. I've been looking of a suction cup feeder with no luck. EDIT: Of course Amazon has them for $10. so I ordered one.

Recommended Feeders?
Inspired by the many posts here with very active feeders. Looking for recommendations on feeders that work well and are recommended. I have tried a few over the years with mixed results and most seem to be cheaply made. My last failure was one that had suction cups for the window but a fat woodpecker did that one in. For geography reference, I live in Tucson, AZ and we get quite a few hummingbirds in the area. Big yard with lots of other birds. They can go through a 10lb bag of bird seed in a day or two if I let them. I understand the importance of cleaning and have no problem cleaning daily if needed. Thx! This is the offending woodpecker that eventually sent my feeder falling to its doom. https://reddit.com/link/1d33fan/video/tsg9463via3d1/player submitted by /u/bpeters001 to r/hummingbirds [link] [comments]

Are Hummingbird Feeders Doing More Harm than Good? Open Discussion
I’ve recently moved to a new state that has a decent hummingbird population. At first, I got very excited and myself and GF went out to buy hummingbird feeders to support our new visitors. After reading some information regarding feeders, I found out that many of them are not cleaned frequently enough and can actually cause significant harm to the hummingbird population though disease. After learning this, I felt as though maybe hummingbird feeders are causing more harm than good in many circumstances. The average consumer (IMO) doesn’t tend to research best practices and may not understand the implications associated with leaving their feeders out for too long. After planting tons of pollinator friendly / hummingbird friendly flowers, I noticed a huge increase in hummingbirds visiting and started thinking to myself that maybe it’s best to grow flowers instead of using an artificial feeder. I’m curious to hear from this community: Are hummingbird feeders doing more harm than good? Are there situations where feeders really are the best option? Do you think the average consumer is maintaining their feeders? Thanks submitted by /u/Slow_Amoeba1211 to r/hummingbirds [link] [comments]

115 degrees here in Los Angeles. This little guy was hanging upside down off a branch with wings spread wide trying to cool off. He couldn't get to our feeder since other Hummingbirds kept chasing him away. Brought him inside for some fresh nectar and A/C. After 20 minutes he flew off refreshed.
