A community for people who like birds, birdwatching and birding in general!

Feel free to share your photos and other birding-related content here. If a photo you post isn't yours, please credit the original creator! Additionally, it would be appreciated if the location of the sighting and a date were given when a photo or question is posted. You do not have to give the precise location, something like "Northern Idaho, June 2023" or even "North-Western US, June 2023" suffices.

You can make hummingbird nectar at home. I think it’s 4:1 water to sugar, let it cool after boiling to dissolve and fill up a feeder. Double check the ratio but I used to get them at my 21st floor apartment. Good luck, they are my favorites!

Plant a little salvia and place feeders near. mine used to draw them in like cats to catnip.
