Attracting Hummingbirds
First of all provide some hummingbird friendly flowering plants in your yard or patio. This will get the hummingbirds attention. Providing hummingbirds with food and water will attract them to a backyard. Food can be provided from flowers or feeders.The Hummingbird Society: Hummingbird Information
Hummingbird feeders are filled with sugar water and allow hummingbirds to access the contents. Fill the feeder with a four to one ratio of water to sugar using only white sugar. Hang it outside where the hummingbirds can find it.The Hummingbird Society: Hummingbird Information
