I have three hummingbird feeders placed at different points in my front yard. I usually have several hummingbirds come up to them, and even some that come up to my window to let me know the feeders are empty.lol I use the premade nectar, which I sometimes add just a little bit of homemade fruit juice to, just to give them something different every once in awhile. They are fun to watch on cool evenings and early morning, though I rarely get up that early in the morning anymore.

Yes i always feed the hummingbirds.I have several feeders.It does not matter if you live in an apartment ,the hummingbirds don't care.i am sure you have a small porch or patio to hang one from.What you put in them is water and sugar and some people use red food coloring to entice them to come to your feeder.You boil water and sugar togeather and bring it to a boil,and it needs to be sweet,then after it cools you fill your feeders,and a drop of red food coloring.I have found that they do not like what you buy at the store...You need to change it weekly so the birds do not get an infection ...

I don't have one, but I've had hummingbirds visiting my herb garden. They are so small, at first I thought they were butterflies, but I got a closer look, and they were humming birds. They were so beautiful. I need to buy a feeder so I can get more of them to come around.
