For about $6 you can buy a Hummingbird feeder at the Ace Hardware in French Harbour… add a mixture of sugar and water (skip the food coloring--it's not healthy for them anyways), and nail it up somewhere outside where you can enjoy the show!! The symphony of lightning-fast wing flutter; the amazing accuracy of direction change in mid flight and the aggressive behaviors towards each other provide a spectacle like no other. And, on Roatan, there are dozens of varieties of Hummingbirds… but they are not the ONLY flying creatures to enjoy the sugar fix...
