Arrow Nectar

At one point in time as I was making my nectar, I though it might be good for the hummingbirds to have a stronger ratio of sugar because they are so active. A Google search led my to lots of reasons why this is a bad idea. Green's Basin Girl is right, the mixture should be one part sugar to four parts water with no coloring.
