Hi, I would appreciate any suggestions to get hummingbird(s) to actually feed at my feeder. It is hanging on my eaves part of the house roof, 3 to 1 solution of well water and common sugar, boiled and cooled, in a red-bottomed with yellow 'eyes' pretend flowers around the bottom with little bird perches in front of the feeder holes. I have seen the odd female stop briefly since April. I am wondering IF the fact that I have a 3-foot by 15-inch tray mounted up the outside of the house porch at the window level where I can (a) continually clean and add feed and (b) see the birds feeding any time I walk by the kitchen entry, might be too close to the hummingbird feeder? They are about 10-12 feet from each other and I do get lots of activity of differing size birds coming and going at the feeder during daylight hours. Patricia Dix Greenwich NS
