How to attract hummingbirds to your yard

If your one that enjoys being able to watch hummingbirds flutter around your yard, maybe you want to photograph them.
Then this How-To guide is for you so read on.

1) Purchase a readily made hummingbird feeder and fill it with nectar.
You can buy it from the store or even make your own by simply adding one part white cane sugar to four parts water, no boiling needed.

2) Now hang the feeder outside a window or on your porch.
Adding more then one feeder at different places around the house can be a good idea as hummingbirds tend to be quite territorial.

3) Plant flower beds near the feeders with flowers that they like such as:
Lantana
and Penta (red or pink are preferable)
A bird bath can also be a good idea.
