Bad title.

@ candyjr1... Great idea using the red bows/silk flowers. As soon as the hummingbirds spot the red and realize there is 'food', they're good to go and will return to the feeder on a regular basis. They're coll little birds! :-D

Ooops...I mean COOL little birds!

That's weird, nectar in plants usually have a syrupy consistency to it.

let me guess ...this vid was sponsored by Cascade. You didn't make a feeder just talked how to make hummingbird food :/

Hi: Thanks for your advice. I've had a hummingbird feeder hanging in my yard since April. No hummingbirds. I'm using the packaged nectar with the red dye. Do you know why I never get hummingbirds? I live in New York City. Thanks

@5277407 Hi there! I use 1 part sugar to 4 parts water , put into a coffee cup , and microwave this for 2-3 minutes to kill molds, stir this , let it cool completely. You HAVE to change and clean the feeder every 4 -7 days. DO NOT use red food color. I hang red bows or red silk flowers in my yard to attract them in the first place. They found my feeder within 2 hrs. after I moved to a new house. love them, enjoy *-*
