Re: [LincolnTalk] What am I doing wrong with my hummingbird feeder?

Hummingbirds are very territorial. I put up a feeder last spring and had a hummingbird show up constantly until another one came along about two weeks later. At that point they would show up dart around each other for a while then take off. 
I put up a 2nd feeder about 20 feet from the first one and they seemed to be happy.

I had something hanging in my window in front of the hummingbird feeder that scared off the birds. It was an owl shaped thing made if shiny matetial bc I had birds flying into my window. Anything like that?

So a week ago I hung up a hummingbird feeder. I’ve seen three of the little guys come and check it out and then fly away without drinking. So I must be doing something wrong. I did 1 part sugar to 4 parts water. I’ve also been changing it out so I don’t think the nectar has gone bad.

Anyone have any tips or tricks?

Thanks!!
