Hi Dorothy,

I'm new to this too!

Go to Lowe's, buy their 2.97 feeder, fill them with 1 part sugar to 4 parts water ( I use 1/4 c sugar to a cup of water), hang it near a tree where they can rest, and enjoy!
Then you can plant plants for next year that they love, like the ones listed at these helpful sites:

Just type hummingbird garden into google.com, and bring snacks and drinks!

Hope this helps!
