Strange stories from Virginia

Hummingbird

While my Mom was visiting she cleaned and filled our hummingbird feeder. It is cool watching them feed. I never knew how territorial they are. While one is feeding an other will dive bomb it. It happens so fast if you blink you'll miss it. It's like watching a WWII dog fight. It's good clean fun for the whole family. You can purchase a feeder for about $5.
Here's how to make your own nectar:
1/4 cup sugar
1 cup water
Boil water first then measure and add sugar.
Let cool and store excess in refrigerator until ready to use.
