Homemade Hummingbird FeedersOur second type of the "Homemade Hummingbird Feeders" is the "Tray Hummingbird Feeder". It is called a tray feeder because you will use a "Tray" in place of a "Tube". The tray hummingbird feeder is the most common hummingbird feeder whether it is just the tray itself or a bottle is attached.This type of homemade hummingbird feeder also has the honor of being a "recycled" feeder just as the "Wine Bottle Hummingbird Feeder" In this case you will need: 
Screw Type Bottle -A recycled bottle that has a screw-on top. For example: a soda bottle or water bottle
Hummingbird Feeder Tray -An inexpensive item you need to purchase or....(I have used the tray of an old feeder where the bottle leaked or broke.) 
An Onion Bag -Choose one with a larger weave.
Here again, you can make the "mini hummingbird feeder" version that's just the right capacity for your situation. 1: Use a cord, heavy nylon string or copper wire and weave this through the mesh at the top of the onion bag. (This serves as a hook to hang the feeder.) 2: Slip the bottle through a hole of the weave at the bottom of the onion bag. 3: Fill the bottle with your "homemade nectar recipe". 4: Screw the tray onto the top of the bottle, turn the bottle over and...... there you have it: another "Homemade Feeder". Now go get an ice cold glass of lemonade, pull up your favorite lawn chair next to your "hummingbird flower garden" equipped with your homemade feeders and relax while watching those busy, buzzing little hummers!
