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.
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...
