One of the things I like about writing a blog is that bloggers share techniques that they have found benefit their wildlife neighbors and/or to enhance our ability to provide a place for them to find food, water and shelter in our backyards.

       Here is a tip a blogger recently shared with us.

       Carol wrote, “Hang your hummingbird feeders securely on hooks installed under the eaves of your house.  Very few predators can access it.  I hang them outside our dining room windows on the shade side of the house to protect the sugar water from fermenting.  I put 2 or 3 pieces of blue tape on the outside window glass so the little birds know that they can’t fly through it.”

       Thanks, Carol, for sharing your hummingbird feeding tip!”
