How high should hummingbird feeders be off the ground?
Question:
Answers:
You can hang them at any height, but I like to keep mine at least 4' off the ground. This helps keep them feeling safe from ground predators. If possible hang a flower basket near the feeder, this will help them feel secure especially if the feeder is near your window.
within easy reach but high enough to keep cats away
Like 5 to 7 ft
Eye level is a good rule of thumb. Something to amaze your friends; hang feeder outside door wall,once the little gems know its there,give it a couple weeks then progressively
start moving feeder towards glass and then inside a foot at a time.be sure to be still and that nothing dramatically scares them.Soon they will hover right into your living space where
you can watch from the comfort of your couch! If your patient
you can also stand perfectly still a foot away from feeder and view. don't let the buzzing make you flinch as sudden moves will scare them!
