We put up a hummingbird feeder this year but it's only attracted wasps so far

They kind of sound the same. Do you make your own nectar? I gallon of water and four cups granulated sugar. Bring it to a boil and let it cool. That beats the store bought crap

Yeah, my wife made it

I think the first year it took a while for even one hummingbird to find our feeder. Now we regularly get them starting about this time every year. They migrate. Supposedly the same birds will return to your feeder every year. I find that a little hard to believe. They are so small and would have to fly so many miles.

For any other bird nerds who might be out there, the camera app identified this guy as an Anna's Hummingbird:
