Where to put hummingbird feeders to attract more birds

Shaded Areas: Hummingbirds prefer feeders in the shade, especially during the hottest part of the day, to keep the nectar from spoiling.

Near Flowers: Position feeders close to colorful, nectar-rich flowers. This mimics their natural feeding environment and can attract more birds.

Safe Perches: Place feeders where birds can easily perch or hover without being disturbed by predators. Near shrubs or trees can offer them cover.

High Traffic Areas: Install feeders where hummingbirds are already active. Observing where they frequently visit can help you decide on the best location.

Dirty feeders or old nectar can drive birds away.
