Feeders are okay, but the real joy comes from watching hummingbirds feed at flowers. In my experience they're big fans of fuchsias, and I've also seen them at fireweed.

Edit: dropped an h, misplaced an s

I spent 120$ last year on fushias that were ignored

I caved and got a feeder when it got near freezing and one of them was making a fuss in the tree in my back yard, and it needs refilling every 2 days now, so I guess no accounting for taste...

We have one that comes to the window when the feeder is empty “Excuse me, your slacking….ill be back in an hour to check up on your work performance “
