Celebrating Life, lesson two


Hang a hummingbird feeder
outside your window.
It is such a delight
to see those sweet tiny birds
come a-grubbin'.
My pa-in-law says to
boil 4 C water, dissolve 1 C sugar,
cool & fill feeder.

  2. Except I don't think you really need to boil the water. I never have and the sugar dissolves just fine if you stir it enough. Also, in the past, I have added a drop or 2 of red food coloring, just for fun. I think they're attracted to it more so that way.

  3. We have a regular birdseed-type feeder that gives me no end of pleasure. I have been amazed at how many birds come to eat there every day and the wide variety of birds that do so.
