1: "Choose a colorful feeder to catch hummingbirds' attention. Red and orange are their favorite hues."

2: "Fill your feeder with homemade nectar: 4 parts water to 1 part sugar. Skip commercial mixes."

3: "Hang the feeder in a shady area to keep nectar fresh longer. Clean it every 3-4 days."

4: "Plant flowers that attract hummingbirds nearby. They love tubular blooms like trumpet vine and bee balm."

5: "Provide perches near your feeder for hummingbirds to rest and survey their territory."

6: "Avoid using pesticides in your garden. Hummingbirds are sensitive to chemicals."

7: "Install a mister or fountain near the feeder. Hummingbirds love to bathe in mist."

8: "Offer a variety of feeders with different shapes and sizes to attract a diverse range of hummingbirds."

9: "Be patient and persistent. It may take some time for hummingbirds to discover your feeder."
