@TheKnifeMaster82 Nice ..... very funny. You made my morning!

[spinspinsugarrr]

pretty good, certainly the easiest one I've seen on youtube

[Getawaymoments]

@spinspinsugarrr Thanks, its not really meant for long term use, but if you need to see if you have hummingbirds around its a cheap and easy way to find out.

The ants love it! I put the piece i cut out in the cup, so the ants wouldnt all drown.

[daligoddess2006]

You should really boil the water too. Cool idea.

Hummingbirds love the color red and are attracted to it. Do not dye the water though, only use red containers

@getawaymoments

Does the cup suppose to be red?

[Getawaymoments]

@Maria9736 The red cup attracts the birds, they see red and think food.

Be sure to boil your 4 parts water and 1 cup sugar mixture for several minutes.

very cool i made one and i have alot of humming from that awesome idea ty svm

[pbsjones]

This is a great idea! The correct ratio for making your own syrup is ONE part sugar to FOUR parts water. Too much sugar and your hummers will become dehydrated, not enough and they will starve.

you have to use the right amount of water to sugar ratio ... Two parts water to One part sugar 1/4 cup sugar 1/2 cup water make sure its dissolved ... and of course make sure its clean, you came make them very sick or even kill the

[calpaw]

that's a good a idea! I like how you did the "dramatization" part of the vid ...very realistic

Great hummingbird clip. Neat idea for a quick emergency feeder too. Glad you mentioned to keep it clean for those who are new to feeding hummingbirds....
