Hi, We had to go somewhere yesterday, and while we were there, we discussed feeding hummingbirds. They have had them show up, but not feed much.I helped them figure out how to better clean the feeders, and maybe get a better one, but while cleaning the feeders, I found the well water has a strong sulphur odor, which was quite bad. I could not taste, altho they filter water from the fridge. I am wondering if this could be a problem for them, or if it is a turn off for the birds? The well is considered safe, I just want to see if something should be changed to help better the situation, if it needs changing. Thanks for any info,Vicki Biltz Bonney Lake Wa.253-241-6010 vickibiltz at msn.com http://www.BirdsofEilat.com
