OP LandOfOz Member Joined: May 2006 Ks, USA	I am here to consult the experts. Where is the best place to put a hummingbird feeder? We don't have any low hanging trees and were thinking about putting it under the eaves on the house near a flower bed. What do you think?? Thanks, Sarah

One of mine is right outside my bedroom window, hanging on a shepard's hook right in the middle of a patch of beebalm, another one is outside the computer room!
