The 2025 Hummingbird Fall Migration

We are now at the beginning of the Hummingbird Fall Migration for 2025.

All of our hummingbirds have mated and raised a new family.

The Fall migration has started up north in Canada and will soon migrate south through the United States to their Winter homelands.

Bookmark the Hummingbird Fall Migration Map 2025 to estimate their arrival next year in your area.

Why Post Your Fall Sightings!

During the Fall Migration hummingbirds engage in a "Feeding Fury" to store energy as fat to power their way south.

This is a good time to help by hanging extra feeders to provide much needed accommodations for their long journey.

Those, who are anxiously awaiting the Fall arrivals, will be able to track the hummingbird migration through your posts.

They will be able to get ready with extra feeders when the time comes.

Some Helpful Hummingbird Products
"Hummingbird Accessories"!

Check your feeders for damage or leaks and maybe replace them.
Make sure they are clean and you have all the accessories you need such as an Ant Moat to keep those pesky ants off your feeders or a "Hummer Helper Helmet" to shade your feeders in the hot sun.

When your feeders get busy, fill them less often with our "All Natural and Safe".....Nectar Defender!

Hummingbird Nectar Recipe

And How To Make It
Last Longer!

Hummingbirds Can't Resist!

I'm sure most of you know the recipe already but just in case!

The Best Hummingbird Nectar Recipe or Best Hummingbird Food Formula is a ratio of 4:1, that is, 4 cups of water to 1 cup sugar

.

This 4 to 1 ratio is the "sweet spot" closest to replicating the natural nectar found in hummingbird attracting flowers proven by ornithologists and research scientists!

How To Make The Nectar Last Longer!

The Best All Natural and Safe Nectar Preservative

- Nectar Lasts Longer. (Preventing Fast Fermentation.)

- Keeping Your Hummingbirds Happy! (Hummingbirds Will Keep Coming Back To Fresh Nectar.
