I AM A HUMMINGBIRD REHABILITATOR IN THE GREATER PHOENIX AND SCOTTSDALE AREAS; BUT I NEVER REFUSE A HUMMINGBIRD THAT NEEDS HELP. I WILL ACCEPT A HUMMINGBIRD FROM ANYWHERE AND ANYONE. I OPERATE UNDER AZ. GAME & FISH DEPT. I HAVE BEEN HELPING HUMMINGBIRDS FOR 25 YEARS. I AM WILING TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE ABOUT HUMMINGBIRDS OR THEIR FEEDING OR WHERE YOU CAN FIND HELP IF YOU FIND ONE IN DISTRESS. PLEASE DO NOT PURCHASE HUMMINGBIRD FOOD IN ANY STORE BUT MAKE YOUR OWN. ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS BOIL FOUR CUPS OF WATER AND WHEN IT COMES TO A BOIL ADD ONE CUP OF WHITE TABLE SUGAR; STIR UNTIL DISSOLVED AND THAT'S IT. DO NOT ADD ANY COLORING. KEEP EXTRA FOOD IN THE REFRIGERATOR IN A CLEAN BOTTLE OR JAR. DO NOT FILL YOUR FEEDER UP COMPLETELY, BUT ONLY ABOUT 1/2 TO 2/3 FULL AND CLEAN THE FEEDER EVERY TIME YOU FILL IT.
HAPPY HUMMING ! !
