There’s nothing like the breathtaking and iridescent blues, purples, and greens of a hummingbird to bring a bit of joy and color to your yard. However, these winged wonders are extremely picky about what environments they choose to grace with their presence. There’s a whole host of reasons why your yard is not benefitting from their soothing hum, their sublime hovering, and their chirpy nature. However, the good news is that if your home is situated in a geographical hummingbird hotspot, then there’s no reason you cannot make it hummingbird friendly.
There are over 350 species of hummingbirds, but the ones most commonly found feeding in America’s backyards include the ruby-throated hummingbird, black-chinned hummingbird, Rufous hummingbird, and Anna’s hummingbird. And depending on where you live, you could encounter even more variety. However, you may find that you aren’t seeing even the most common native species stop by your home. Here are the reasons why they’re probably steering clear of your yard, as well as the steps you can take to make your yard more hospitable.
