diy hummingbird nectar

now that my wine bottle hummingbird feeders are made, it's time to fill them with some diy nectar. here's how...

1. mix 1/4 c. sugar and 1 c. water together.
2. stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.
3. place in pan over medium heat + boil for five minutes.
4. allow to cool to room temperature.
5. pour into hummingbird feeder.
6. cover any unused nectar and refrigerate for up to five days.

note: you can add red food coloring if desired.
