Hummer nectar

Oops! I posted yesterday that hummer nectar is 1/4 sugar to two cups water. It is 1/4 cup sugar to one cup water. I generally make two cups at a time because that will last about a week and it’s not good to keep the nectar around much longer than that. Keep it in the fridge. A well-kept hummer feeder will bring more hummers. Many are migrating right now. The adult males usually migrate first and we want them to have plenty of fuel for their long journey.
