Watch a Zillion Hummingbirds Overwhelm a Missouri Birdfeeder
If you love hummingbirds, I found a few for you. What seems like a zillion of these fascinating little birds were spotted overwhelming a birdfeeder in Missouri.

This fun bird moment was captured on Parker Lake in Perryville, Missouri. When I say that there are a zillion hummingbirds, I should mention that math was my worst subject in school. That being said this is a lot of hummingbirds. My wife is a hummingbird fan and she counted two dozen birds. To me, that might as well be a zillion.
We have a handful of hummingbirds that frequent our feeder. The Audubon Society says that the best food to attract birds like this is a simple "a 1:4 solution of refined white sugar to tap water. That’s ¼ cup of sugar in 1 cup of water." They say that artificial coloring isn't good for hummingbirds, but your mileage may vary. The Spruce says that the more natural the food you provide hummingbirds, the happier they'll be.
