How can I ensure my hummingbird feeder is effective during colder months?
As someone focused on sustainable farming and permaculture, I'm curious about the best practices for keeping my hummingbird feeder active throughout the colder months. I live in a climate where winter temperatures can drop significantly, and I want to ensure that my feeder provides a reliable source of food for any hummingbirds that might linger. I've heard mixed advice on whether to keep it out or take it down during the winter. Should I adjust the sugar-to-water ratio for colder weather, or is there a specific feeding schedule I should adhere to? Any insights on winter feeder maintenance would be really helpful!
