How to Get a Humming Bird to Sit in Your Hand

I was a patient boy, my brother and sister might question that statement, but I could sit for hours, silently, without moving a muscle until a hummingbird would come and sit in my hand.
And you can do it too. Here's how:
Buy a nice Hummingbird feeder, one with hopefully a well to keep out the ants.



















Make a Hummingbird Holder (optional)

Let a couple days go by until the birds find it. What's amazing is you'll notice they aren't afraid of humans. Once they start feeding at it, start to sit nearer and nearer to it eventually until you are right next to it.  Hold your finger under the spot where the birds feed.  Once one is feeding right above your finger you can actually push it up under the bird until it sits on it. They have no fear.


Try it, there's nothing like it.
Live well,
Rob Barrett, Jr.
