Any hummingbird babies?

[@leolaholdeman332]

Because of you and your wonderful results with hummingbirds birds I decided to put a hummingbird feeder out in May to my surprise I have to hummingbirds that visit. LOL I bought those dollar tree hummingbird feeders, they clean up easy. Today I saw 2 gold finches now to by feed for them. OH! Because of you I have made me 3 water features, birds, butterflies frogs bees love them. I had fun and the enjoyment of sitting on back porch watching them is so refreshing and relaxing. Even a squirrel is using water features love it

[@denisemarchina298]

Robbie, I want to send a sincere thank you for all your videos on these beautiful creatures. I have put out five feeders and have at least three hummingbirds that come multiple times every day. My husband and I love sitting on our deck in the morning and early evening waiting for them to come by. We’ve also made two water features for our yard and deck that we immensely enjoy thanks to your videos! ❤️

[@charlotteseden9303]

You are so lucky to have the nests so close and so many hummers .Thanks for the video

[@loiscashner6567]

I just use dawn and use real hot water cleans wonderful no brushing needed . Love feeding the hummingbabies

[@debrak.9251]

Last year I made a hummingbird swing that I hung near feeders. They used it! They can keep a close eye on the feeder now. And I'm going to use a little solar fountain too.

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

That is awesome!

[@roninreturns228]

We'll need to see that swing in motion, that sounds too cute! Are they as territorial over the swing as they are over "their" personal favorite feeder?

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

@@roninreturns228 I am going to get something again together on my favorite feeder, but you can check out this video I did on that topic of hummingbird feeders: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z6jbfKaLbpyobM0

[@judijames4388]

Love your channel! Made the wire seats for my feeder that didn't have any and at first they flew around and checked them out BUT now they all LOVE to "sit and sip"! Thank you

[@dragonmomandahamster]

We have a new young hummingbird hanging around our house and feeders - this lil one has been exploring all the things in the yard, then coming up for a drink from the feeders, then looking around again. At one point he was trying to see if he could feed off of our songbird bird feeders! This little one is also very curious about us - he flew up into my husband and my faces and just looked at us for a few before heading back to the feeders. :)

[@jnc1028]

[@roninreturns228]

I can see I found my "one stop shop" for all things related to hummingbirds, I've been pouring through your videos Robbie and have learned a lot. The new place that I'm moving into had a couple of old feeders, so I'm going to get those properly cleaned up, prepare the feed solution using your recipe, and Hope that the hummingbirds remember the place and come back. I have lots of flower seeds, so I'll advertise their "diner"!

[@joyshaner2781]

I love your passion and the great info! We have 1 hummingbird. Now I am excited that we may have more birds. Patience! Tks so much!

[@knexus5039]

Unless it's a male that chases away other birds, then I think you'll just have one for a long while. Or rather, you will see others also when they can sneak in a drink!

[@Mary-zl1kj]

I ran across your video while scanning video’s and I absolutely love it. I’m addicted to them now. I have always scared to try because I always heard it was very hard so I never tried. Thank you for making it easy.

[@cekfraun]

Oh my goodness, this video is so entertaining as well as informative! I've never seen a mama hummingbird feeding her little tiny babies before. How sweet! I'm going to put out more feeders and see if I can attract the hummers to come back. I had several last year that came regularly, but this year have only seen one occasionally. It's been very disappointing. I will maybe make them a fountain like you showed in another video, too. Thanks for all the tips.

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

Adding water does help to bring them in and a couple flowers can help too 😊

[@jewellkelley2983]

YOU ARE THE GREATEST!!! I TRIED TO CLEAN A HUMMING BIRD FEEDER THE OTHER DAY!!! AND TRIED A TINY BRUSH, THAT DIDN'T WORK, THEN I PUT A PAPER TOWEL AROUND IT AND GOT THE TOWEL STUCK, WELL ANY WAYS ALMOST THREW IT AWAY!!! I HAVE FOUND YOU NOW, AND YOU HAVE HELPED ME SO MUCH, I LIVE IN AN APT, IN OHIO AND HARDLY ANY POLLINATORS OR BIRDS, I HAVE ONE HUMMER!!! SO AM GOING TO TAKE A FEW CLUES FROM YOU.

Love watching the hummers. I miss living in the country. My Mom had so many Hummers where she lived that they would swarm you when you went outside until they got used to you. I never tired of watching them. You just taught me a lot about hummers that I didn't know. Cool. Thank you.

[@Paula-mo2fh]

Robbie, I was just so tired of having the News on in the mornings when I stumbled onto your channel. Now when I get up in the morning, I go to Robbie and Gary Easy Gardening. I have tried to get hummingbirds but I haven't been successful. I suppose they just aren't in my area (Rosharon, Tx) this time of year. It is really humid, sunny and windy so it's been challenging. But I do really enjoy your videos. The house I live in is a rental so learning about your container gardening tips has been so nice. I'd like to try that next. Thanks for all your great information but mostly, I just like having these nice conversations during a time when we're so housebound.Thanks!

[@denisegeiss1968]

Hello Robbie, I love watching all your videos. You are a very kind & thoughtful lady to the birdies & the environment. And that means a lot. I’m having a couple problems. First is the trouble with squirrels I had a great feeder that when the squirrel got on it they would spin around ( which was so funny to watch) & fling them off, but a bear ruined it & now it’s broken. That feeder was very expensive for me anyway. But the squirrels are always eating the seed & suet. I don’t know how to stop them. Second is I had 3 hummingbirds that came around about a month ago. So 2 weeks ago I got my first feeder that I could dig out. But one only came by one time. And none ever came back that I’ve seen. The funny thing was I have a large hummingbird on a spring that hangs off my deck & the wings flap. The one day I was sitting on my deck & the hummingbird went to it & it almost looked like she was giving my bird a kiss . It was so funny but cute. Anyway I haven’t seen a hummingbird since & don’t know what to make them show up? I have bird bathed all around & even a solar one that is a few years old but it won’t work anymore. I’ve kept it clean & take it in every winter cause in PA we have very cold winters. The last problem I have is I see & hear the birds but they aren’t coming to my feeders & I even have 2 finch feeders hanging also. Can you please help me Robbie? I trust your info. Sorry to tell you all my issues & that this comment is way long. Have a beautiful day & I hope you will get back to me. Hugs

[@thoughtcontrol1503]

Didn’t know hummingbirds eat little bugs too, thx for all the tips!

[@glasscop]

Great information you've shared, thank you. You make me want to move to a warmer climate ..... I've never, ever seen so many hummingbirds at one time. Wow! Our birds, here on the East Coast (Maryland) migrate......or at least I believe they do since I've never see them after the fal, l until the next spring. Thanks for the heads up on luring the bees away from the feeders. I've been bombarded with them for the last week or two. Going to try to lure them away from my feeders. Thanks for all the information!

[@maryreneebruno9962]

Thanks Robbie for another great video. Love to see your mamma hummingbird and get updates. I appreciate how patient you are with your audience and answering the questions. You are a master teacher! 😊 I have since made 2 fountains and put up hummingbird feeders. Only thing is, they come to all of my flowers, but never to the feeders. I will keep them up and see what happens.

[@citybarbs5563]

That's good! It means they are getting what they need from the flowers. Feeders are supplemental. What flowers are you growing?

[@MommaTacos]

Thank you so much for your advice about attracting hummingbirds. I’ve been successful bringing them into my yard at our up north property. I have a question ---- have you ever had the young birds play tag/keep away? It’s like the ‘teenagers’ are constantly chasing each other in and out of the trees. I’ve watched then sit and look out for the others. Two three sometimes four will ‘dog fight’. It’s amazing!!!!!

[@conihog262]

Fun to watch learned a lot. I live on a farm too, lots of work always hard to keep up.

[@klattin1501]

Thank you Robbie. Wow you covered it all. I learn so much from you. I never saw an Oriole until I put food out for the hummers. I no longer see hummers 😥😥😥 so I just accepted it this year and feed oreoles

Thanks for all of your creative suggestions and creations so everyone may enjoy feeding the birds! I will say though, my recent joy was when I found a bee guard brush at notable bird food store.😊 Great for getting in those hard to reach crevices of bee guards.

[@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy]

Great find on the brush, here I use toothbrushes or mascara brush. I just love those little birds, Thanks so much, take care, Robbie

[@terrynb1922]

@@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy That is a super idea! I also found it this notable bird food store... 😉 An additive that you can put in the hummingbird mixture and it will help the nectar stay good up to 2 weeks! I just recently tried it out - I only have one feeder - And it did keep the hummingbird nectar fresh for up to the two weeks that it claimed! It says on the bottle that it is a natural mineral or vitamin that they eat in flowers that just happens to preserve the nectar longer. So it's not a chemical additive. And I live in Florida where it's hot, and sunny and the nectar seems to spoil within days. I have a little bully hummingbird who chases everybody out of the yard! I know I just have the one feeder I should put more up but truly I can only deal with the one feeder and one bird right now! Lol! But now that I've gotten used to his ways he's like a pet. I'm really going to miss him when he migrates. I sure hope he does okay and comes back next year. I call him Teeny Meanie, The Terror of the Backyard!

[@tinamarie2957]

Hi Robbie, I love your videos, I love hummingbirds and met my first one last year on a single feeder attracted by a fake vine with fake roses lol. But I was hooked, it came around all the time and it did chase all the others away. Now that I've watched many of your videos I'm off to Walmart to buy more feeders and I'm also going to make some swings for them. Thanks so much for all the information you've shared, it really has taught me so much. I also love the videos on the bird fountains. Take care Thanks again and happy birding.

[@Irishjay-gu5pb]

Ha!!! I have ridiculous RACCOONS!!! Oh my word, I went through 14 hummingbird feeders last summer!!! It's insanity! It's not normally the older ones, but my goodness those silly, unbelievable adolescent raccoons are a handful!!! I seriously went nuts last summer! Finally, I was just broke, and luckily by the end of July Menards has the single feeders for $.99!!! And the hummingbirds loved them, I loved them since they were super simple! Dollar General just got them in stock, for $1.50, lol, I bought all 8 they had out! Ha!! It's also much easier for me to keep them filled by keeping the food in a bigger water bottle. I'm glad I can separate them all over, mine get very territorial, even though between my mother and I we always have multiple feeders full. We also plant any flowers we hear they are attracted to. ;) Trumpet Vine is like icecream for them, as it would be for me! ;)

Robbie....you're truly amazing! I only found you maybe a few weeks ago and subbed...I can sit and watch, and learn from you for HOURS on end. I will be trying a lot of the solar fountains I've watched you make. I LOVE the concrete designs you've made and I've never played with concrete before but I am going TODAY to purchase what I need and order online some of the solar and chargeable fountains. I love that you have not only the humming birds but all the beautiful birds you have. Some of my favorites are the Humming birds ( of course), the blue bunting, yellow finches, and the boston oriels. I have tons of different birds but I have little to NO trees in my yard.....wanting to create a safe place for ALL my little gifts from God so that they feel safe and loved. You are the best for helping us. God bless and keep you and yours.

Of course we are not there all year but as soon as we get there and put out the feeders, there he is. I have never found a nest around us. I know I do need to plant more flowers for them. I am now working on water features from your videos. We are going up very soon and I can't wait to supply them with that. I did find a rough ball type decor, I don't know what it's used for, but I am using that in a water feature. I have ordered and rec'd the solarless pumps that you had in your video. Love them.

Well after the couple of days, I realized they didn’t have the perch like my other ones so I PAINFULLY made them with coat hangers that I cut myself. You mean to tell me I could’ve just used PIPE CLEANERS, WHERE WERE YOU DURING MY PAIN?!? 😂 Anyways, you have THEE BEST FRUGAL tips of anyone for anything I’ve seen hands down!!! Btw, I just ordered 4 solar pumps & can’t wait to make my baths in the Spring…actually I just realize I can make one now with my heated birdbath (heated dog bowl with a shallow Dollar store dish instead)…since I’m in New England. Btw, I thought we weren’t suppose to use any other sugar besides granulated? Does it matter what region you’re from, maybe your Hummbies can tolerate Cane & Beet sugar?
