I don’t know about that, I understand this is how your raised. I feel helping others including the creatures of the world is done from the heart. We have to want to do this for them, not because it says so. (but whatever works) We all should be good humans and care for what God has given us to enjoy. Sadly though there are too few of us that believe this. Hence the reason our world is crumbling in front of our eyes. It’s saddens me and I cry for the helpless, humans and animals alike. I’m so glad to hear you help all things as well ❤

I've been a subscriber for some time now and get great inspiration from you. I mix 1/4 cup sugar to 1/4 cup hot water until sugar is dissolved. Then I add 3/4 cold water. It ends up being lukewarm and I feel ready to put it in my feeder right away. I also learned from you to use a spoolie to clean the small holes of the feeder. I think you cleaned up an old mascara brush, but I had a discarded brow crayon with an unused spoolie on the end. Your garden is gorgeous and so fun with all the hummingbirds! We might get 4 at a time, but that's it.

I'm just happy to hear & see the Doves and Robins in my garden. Even though our weather's still chilled here, I put out a shallow dish of water for them. They remember how generous I was last year placing 3 gallon-sized buckets of fresh water for them. I placed twigs in each of them so the Monarchs & Bumblebees could drink too. The Robins would sit on the edge of the buckets...dunking grasshoppers in sort of a milk & cookies fashion. Nature deserves Mums like you & I, Robbie. I taught folks to place out buckets which drastically cut back on those cannibalistic grasshoppers. And you Robbie, well...I hand over the wand on everything else. Take care, ~ Covah

I have figured a way to keep the paper wasps off my feeder. I had to buy a new one and happened onto a More Birds feeder. I also got a free bottle brush with the feeder. It closes up tight around the bottom and does not leak any nectar. Before, the wasps would intimidate my birds and now the birds can get a sip anytime. I have a watch bird everyday who chases away others but they are fun to watch. When his shift ends they all go for it. I have also purchased a wasp trap. It is a sticky type that the wasps are attracted to and when they go in, they are history. Love My Birds and would do anything for them. Thanks Robbie.

This year I decided to commit to using my hummingbird feeder regularly, and staying on top of it. I started with the premade mix until I could buy the sugar and look up the recipe to make up my own. What a difference it made using my own mix! They love it so much more. I think may have made it a tad too sweet though. But I've noticed they'll sit drinking a lot longer. I have 3 feeders set up on one side of the yard in the trees, about 7-10 ft apart. Perfect set up, the privet tree branches provide an overhang and protection from the sun. Other side I have 1 on a hook under some trees. I've gone from having to fill them every 3 days to every day now lol. But now the 3 sided one, there's a bully. And all I hear is constant chatter and he/she will chase one far off and then others swoop in to drink. Kind of funny, but that chattering....my gosh it's almost annoying. So the side with 1 feeder isn't as bad as far as bullying. That one still needs refilled about every 2-3 days. My desk is right next to that side of the house/window but I can't see the feeder directly. Twice now I've had a hummingbird come up to the window and fly up and down it and start chattering loudly. I can hear it with window closed. No feeders or anything bright on the window. I got curious the first time and went out to look, and feeder was empty. So some how that bird figured out I'm the one that refills the feeder, and has seen me sitting at my desk and knows I"m there, and knew to get my attention. I think it's hilarious and shows they're pretty dang smart! Just watched your ant guard video too, going to get to work on that soon as well. Thank you!!

Thanks! I've started attracting swarms of hummingbirds since changing to the 1:4 mix. We've got tons of hummingbirds here in San Miguel de Allende in central Mexico. Previously, I was adding only a few teaspoons of white sugar and was attracting the odd hummingbird or two, so clearly it was not sweet enough. I've always switched the water after 4 days, but at this rate I will be refilling it after 2-3 days max. The birds seem to love the new and improved formula.

Robbie thank you for your information on the hummingbirds. I've been having trouble with bees. My feeders don't have the yellow to word off the bees. I went to the hardware store and picked up a can of yellow paint and spray the feeders. It worked! The bees stay on the other feeders that I have

First things first: I have enjoyed your videos in a big way -- so informative and fun. The inspiration you provide all of us is a wonderful thing! I'd purchased the little Walmart hummingbird feeder awhile back, because of the great price. I subsequently saw one of your videos actually talking about this feeder -- it made me happy to know this one would work. I then bought several more because of that video. :) I wanted to hang them out today because I figured most of the rain was finally finished for awhile (central/northern California). I was wrong -- it's raining cats'n dogs today. Even though our trees don't have leaves yet, the hummingbirds are already out searching for food, so it feels important to get these out there for them. What I want to know is if I put the feeders out and it rains, will enough of it get inside the feeder to dilute the nectar solution?

We have two 25 lbs dominos sugar bags just sitting in pantry. Now I know how to get rid of it and make birds happy. Hummingbirds are fun to look at. They show up exactly at 3pm (+/-1 minute) in our garden. I find that amusing.

That’s a 3-1 mixture, which I do use, but! I add Mexican sugar too, it’s cane, it’s raw I believe, I add 1 part, they love it. I did a test with my recipe and just White sugar, hands down the recipe with the Mexican sugar won! By a large margin! In late August I go to a 2-1 mixture, that gives them over 5 weeks to put on the needed weight for there long trip home! My birds are gone by the first week of October, but we get migrating birds who stop by on the way south!

Where I’m from, you don’t see hundreds of hummingbirds, but my mother has a single hummingbird feeder she puts out every year and this year we see at least 7 hummingbirds a day that will come by. They have been coming by so often, we’ve had to refill the small feeder at least once a week. The one good thing about the recipe is we can make a large batch and fill it back up throughout the week. We are starting to get regulars and it’s a lot of fun see the birds whenever we are in the kitchen and can look out front.

That’s how I make it, three cups at a time , I change the water every two days especially when it’s hot outside.

Small amounts? ... LOL ... We go through 8 or more cups a day. Usually that only happens during migration but this year they don't seem to be moving through or the migration is dispersed and just keeps coming through. We started with just 1 bird that had found the feeder I bought and hung, it stayed over a couple years then a couple more found us. After a few years 3-4 started staying the year since we have a mild enough climate for them. Now there are 2-3 nests in our trees, who knows how many around us, we live in a little rural town full of trees surrounded by nut orchards and the riparian habit that is being saved by California near the river. The last 5-6 years during migration it has sounded like you've walked into a bee hive when you step outside, but that only lasted a week or so until the winds and temperatures became advantages for them to move on. This year though we've been a month or more going through those daily 8 cup refills although we're not getting that bee hive effect this year. We see maybe 4-7 at time. But still, 8 cups! I saw somewhere that could mean 2,000 to 4,000 daily visitors. 10 lbs sugar every few weeks? Like you say penny's a day and a half hour of my time daily. 2,000-4,000 humming birds that would otherwise be hours from death. Small price. Wish I could do the bird baths you share but we also have been feeding up to 35 feral cat's that we've spent a year trapping, getting them fixed, and their shots, but they still hunt. They can't help it. When the Humming Birds started staying I couldn't believe they could live on sucrose alone and looked into it, they also eat knats. So I quit spraying the landscaping that can survive the white flies and the webs they build that trap other knats,. The birds are very happy and chubby, although my yard doesn't look as pristine as it used toto others. Small price. I know why.

Wow, you do have a lot of birds, we can go through gallons a day. Yes, they eat gnats pollen and nectar as well, and they are moving around differently this year than usual. ❤️

1-Do not forget to wash the feeders everyday. 2- During the summer please change the water with sugar every day when the temperature goes above 85 degrees to avoid bacterial proliferation.

Just put out 2 feeders! I had them out last year but it was with the store bought stuff and they liked it for part if the year and then lost interest (theres not a ton of wild flowers around me and i saw them at my neighbors still so im assuming they didnt really like the store bought stuff very much) trying this recipe and hoping it brings them back!
