on 4/23/2008 Yay! Exactly the proportions that hummingbird experts recommend.
And if you're tempted to add red coloring, DON'T! It sticks to their tongues and is BAD, BAD, BAD.
They'll go crazy for this and you'll have some very happy hummers!
One thing, be ready to add more feeders. Hummers get very territorial about their feeders, and you're likely to witness some impressive dive bombing air attacks as they protect their source.
