Near a Window (But Not Too Close) 🪟 Hanging a feeder near a window lets you enjoy the view, but keeping it a few feet away prevents birds from accidentally colliding with the glass.
Under a Covered Porch or Awning 🏡 A shaded spot keeps nectar from spoiling too quickly and provides a safe, sheltered area for hummingbirds to feed.
Among Flowers and Plants 🌺 Placing a feeder near colorful, nectar-rich flowers like fuchsias and salvias naturally attracts hummingbirds and creates a beautiful feeding zone.
Hanging from a Tree Branch 🌳 A sturdy tree branch offers shade, a natural setting, and protection from predators, making it a great location for a feeder.
Close to a Water Source 💦 Hummingbirds love water, so placing a feeder near a birdbath, fountain, or misting station can encourage more visits.
Away from High-Traffic Areas 🚶♂️ For a stress-free feeding experience, avoid placing the feeder near busy walkways, noisy patios, or areas with frequent human activity.
Near a Second Feeder 🔄 If you have territorial hummingbirds, setting up multiple feeders in different locations reduces competition and ensures more birds can enjoy the nectar.
