Hummingbirds are back!

I saw the first Hummingbird (Piedmont North Carolina), Wednesday this past week. I put out one of the feeders I had from last season but it might be time to add a couple new feeders. These are relatively inexpensive ways to support the birds that visit your area. Hummingbirds have traveled a long, long trip to return to the US for their “summer vacation.” Make sure you have something ready for them to drink so they will stay with you all summer.
It is important to keep the “juice” fresh and the feeder clean. Sticky, syrupy liquid that is the Hummingbird’s favorite drink can go rancid fairly quick in hot summer months. I put out several feeders and then fill and clean on a rotating basis so the little “Hummers” can be assured of having something cool, and safe to drink.
Here are several stylish options from The Bird Shed. They have hundreds of products for backyard birding from feeders to houses to food.
