I was wondering if you have a humming bird feeder that we could hang at the villas? I just love watching them and would just love to borrow one:-)
Do they take a while to notice the feeder?
If you don't know of where to get one maybe someone else does? If not I'll hide in the shrubbery like last time to take photos!

Hmmm, don't have one and not sure where to get one. I've seen folks make one out of nip bottles that you get on an airplane. Maybe you could bring a nip bottle and we could make one.

I had to travel to Santa just to find one - and it was too expensive for me ($15USD).

May I add that the nectar can be made by boiling 1 part sugar into 4 parts water. Let cool.

Red dye is unnecessary and may be harmful to the hummingbirds.
