To prevent a single hummingbird from monopolizing your feeder, place several feeders out of view of each other around your backyard. Provide nectar feeders at varying heights. Different hummingbird species will favor and defend different heights. Some hummingbird species like to feed at heights of 12 to 15 feet, while others typically feed on low growing flowers and will prefer feeders placed closer to the ground. Place your feeders in at least 3 different heights to reduce aggression between hummingbirds.
Hummingbirds love to bathe on misted leaves.
In their non stop quest for fuel, hummingbirds may visit 1,000 flowers per day. Plant flowers that hummingbirds are attracted to. Your best bet is red, tubular single blossom flowers. Provide foliage that hummingbirds will use for nesting materials. Hummingbirds prefer downy like materials, spider webs, ferns, moss and lichens for nesting material.
