| Go to Wentworths and get the ant traps made specifically for hummingbird feeders. Work like a charm.

| Every year I put up 3 feeders and I get so many hummingbirds, my neighbors are so jealous. I had just got 1 up last weekend and within an hour I had my first. Love to sit and watch them.

| I'll have to tell my father to get his feeders out. He sits out on the patio and watches them all time during the summer ![]()

| The girls and I hand fed humming birds of all different kinds at a Rocklands Bird Sanctuary in Jamaica. You just hold the little bottle in one hand, and put your other finger up as a sorta perch. They lightly land on your finger to eat. It was a little freaky with those things buzzing all around my head and arms, but soooooooo cool. Quite an experince. I have some pics somewhere. I'll have to find them and post them.

| I'll never forget the time I got to hold a little hummingbird in my hands. ![]() I haven't put my feeders up yet. Guess I could go do that now instead of sitting here on my butt. |
