Hummingbird's are Great to Watch

July 5th, 2009

We’ve had a glass hummingbird feeder for a few years now. I really like watching them buzz like bees while they suck up the sugar water we’ve mixed together. We mix a half of a cup of sugar, water and red food dye together for perfect hummingbird food. The great thing about the hummingbird is you don’t have the messy bird seed all over the ground. This year we bought a new feeder for our visitors. Most of the hummingbirds we see are the ruby throated hummingbird. The remind me of a large bee because of the noise the wings make when they flap. A few times I’ve nearly got dive bombed by them. Sometimes it’s nice to watch these brilliant animals when you’re not feeling so hot from being sick. I’ve learned to enjoy the beauty of nature.
