The Best Places to Hang Hummingbird Feeders

Near Flowers

Hang feeders near colorful flowers to attract more hummingbirds.

Away from Wind

Choose a sheltered spot to protect the feeder from strong winds.

In Direct or Partial Sunlight

Hummingbirds are drawn to sunny areas, but avoid too much direct sunlight which can make nectar spoil faster.

At Eye Level or Higher

Hang feeders at eye level or higher for easy visibility and accessibility for hummingbirds.

In a Quiet Spot

Keep feeders in peaceful areas, away from loud noises and distractions.

Close to Trees or Bushes

Planting nearby trees or bushes gives hummingbirds a place to rest between feeding sessions.

Multiple Feeders

If you have a large yard, placing multiple feeders at different spots can help reduce territorial disputes.
