HUMMINGBIRD FOOD

This is such an easy recipe. I don't add any food color to this as I've heard it's not good for the little birds. Do not use honey or other types of sugar, the birds cannot digest them. Also if you have trouble with ants you can now get a little item that has ant repellent in it that doesn't harm the birds. I have one on my hummer feeder.

Steps:

  • Bring the water to a boil.
  • Take the water off the heat and add the sugar.
  • Stir to dissolve completely.
  • Let the nectar cool.
  • Place in a clean hummingbird feeder and hang outside for the birds.
  • Note:.
  • Change the food at least every three to five days with a new batch to keep it fresh. Remember don't use food coloring.
  • Check the bird feeder regularly and every time you change the food to see if any gray mold has formed inside the feeder base, or, any ants have crawled inside to get at the sugar water.
  • If you see any take the feeder down and throw the bird food away. It's not good for the birds to drink this. Chances are they won't drink it anyway.
  • Clean the hummingbird feeder by rinsing with warm water. Then, put a few drops of bleach into the water inside the feeder and clean with a bottle brush.
  • Once clean, rinse thoroughly with fresh water and let dry.
  • Fill up with new food and place outside.
  • The birds will love you for it!

10 BEST FOODS FOR BIRD FEEDING – MORE BIRDS

From morebirds.com
Estimated Reading Time 6 mins
  • Sunflower Seed. This widespread, familiar seed is a favorite of almost every backyard feeder bird. Sunflower seeds have thin, easy-to-crack shells and can be offered in a wide variety of feeder types, including platform, tube, and hopper feeders.
  • Nyjer® (Thistle) Seed. These tiny, oil-rich seeds are a favorite of goldfinches, redpolls, siskins, and other finches. Nyjer is a fantastic source of energy-rich fatty oils and protein for feather regrowth after molting or as young birds mature.
  • Peanuts. Easy-to-offer peanuts are a favorite treat for a variety of birds, including jays, chickadees, wrens, nuthatches, and woodpeckers. Peanuts can be offered loose in a dish or platform, or can fill hopper feeders or specialized peanut feeders.
  • Safflower Seed. These somewhat bitter, white seeds are especially popular with cardinals and grosbeaks. High in protein, fiber, and fat, safflower seeds can be offered on tray feeders or in hopper feeders.
  • White Proso Millet. This small, carb-rich grain is inexpensive and nutritious. Millet offers more seed volume than larger seed types when packaged in a similarly sized bag, making it great for bird feeding on a budget.
  • Suet. Cakes of suet provide healthy fat that is easy for birds to break down into usable energy, which is especially critical for winter birds to maintain body temperature during cold nights.
  • Nectar. Sweet nectar is high-octane fuel for hummingbirds and orioles. It’s always best to make your own homemade nectar for your hummingbird feeders—and it’s easy too!
  • Mealworms. Live, dried, or roasted, mealworms are the prime choice for attracting bluebirds and many other beautiful, insect-loving birds such as thrushes and thrashers.
  • Fruit & Jelly. Orioles are well known for their sweet preferences, and fruit and jelly attract these birds in colorful flocks. Offer juicy orange halves or grape jelly on oriole feeders or in small dishes.
  • Shelled & Cracked Corn. Corn can be tricky to offer to birds, but many bird species enjoy it. Offer corn on tray feeders in minimal amounts so it is always fresh.
