Me too. That is why I want to include the puddles. The flowers give them the sweet nectar, but they need the other minerals as well. I would love to supply them with whatever they require.

The thing to remember, as I see it, is that they are used to getting nectar at any level, but the minerals they want are usually on the ground, so keep the puddles fairly low, like under two feet.

I would love to see pics of all that you all have done, or, like me, are doing. I tried to get a picture yesterday afternoon, but all I got were dog ears!!
