@spacehog3000 I believe they do inhabit all parts of the US, but only the ruby-throat variety lives east of the Mississippi. They stay for a longer time in warmer climates.
I'm sure you could hang a feeder outside of your window. Be sure to use 1 part sugar to 4 parts boiling water. Do not add red coloring to the nectar. Allow to cool before giving to the birds.
I think I had to refill it every other day, but I always made extra and kept it in the fridge for quick refills. The hummies are only around for 3 months, so it's not a big deal.
Fantastic!! Simple and completely affordable ... that if I get that particular prescription XD! Anyhow, I've noticed that I don't get yet that many hummingbirds visiting my garden,so I should certainly try something like this, with a much smaller plastic or glass container. Thanks for the idea!!!

looks good but seems like you need to refill it very often. Once a day?

@stepfordwoman Target pill bottle does work. It took couple days for the birds to find it but they do come. Thanks.

Great idea for a hummingbird feeder-simple yet functional.
