Awesome, wouldn't mind sitting on the porch with my camera...
We have one male who thinks the feeders are all his, likes to guard them.

Yup the ones we have are kinda aggressive too. Chasing each other around all the time. Love watching those little birds.Originally Posted by bdog7198
Very nice, even better than a fish tank IMHO. Question: did you slow the video some? That doesn't look like real life wing speed.
Some people are so judgemental. You can tell just by looking at 'em.--Some random meme
I love watch humming birds.
Funtastic!!! I finally got my flock. They empty my two feeders every three days.
I could watch them all day.
Awesome video. we had to move our feeders 15-20 ft apart. They wouldn’t let each other land and feed. Now we will see 2 setting at the same time. Dudes like to fight.
I’ve got 11 at almost any given time on my feeders, and have counted more than that. I’m filling 3 feeders at leasts twice a day, and have upgraded to larger feeders twice lol.

I noticed that also. I downloaded the video using Adobe Photoshop. I didn't do anything to adjust the speed of the video. This was my first attempt at videoing using a DSLR camera. I wonder if photoshop automatically reduces the speed?
we get some but lots smaller birds-- what is you mix like?? 4 parts water to 1 part sugar is what my wife mixes up? used to do it 1 to 1 and more birds showed up but too strong she read somewhere?

4 to 1 is standard. One cup of granulated white sugar, one of hot water, shake, then 3 more of cold water. Store in fridge. Throw out unused OUTSIDE nectar after 3 days and rinse and refill.
There's always one that will run themselves out of gas doing this.
Nice video.
They make a preservative to extend the sugar water life to several weeks, I do not know myself how well it work's. Anyone use it?
Awesome birds!

we use the same ratio. 4 parts water 1 part sugar.

No one can be wrong that often so it has to be deliberate.
I had quite a few years ago but took the feeders down for a period of time. I recently put up two more a couple of months ago and haven't seen a single hummer. To the say the least I am disappointed. I don't have any flowers outside the house so maybe that is the problem.
