7. Why Haven’t Any Hummingbirds Come to My Feeder?
It's easy to feel discouraged when you purchase a hummingbird feeder, keep it filled with fresh food, and still never see a hummingbird enjoying it. However, don't take it personally! Remain persistent about cleaning and filling the feeder; with time, a bird is likely to adopt it.
Some reasons why you aren't seeing birds at your feeder yet include:
- Migration and breeding season has passed
- Hummingbirds simply haven't found the feeder yet
- Bees or other insects have invaded the feeder
- The feeder is located too close to a seed feeder
- The feeder needs to be cleaned and filled more frequently
- Landscaping lacks hummingbird-friendly plants
