Boil your water. Use 4 cups water to 1 cup sugar. A little more is ok too. No color is needed.

The planet is tilting, spring will return, and so will the hummingbirds. Last August we published a method of estimating the number of Hummingbirds you feed based on the amount of nectar disappearing from your feeders.
