    where do you live? It may be a little too early to start seeing quite a few of them.

    Both above answers are spot on. Too early and you'll need plants to attracr them. When they see you provide more than just plants, your yard will be a hotspot for them. Anything that will bring in butterflies will also help. Red flowers will be your best helper in getting hummingbirds to your yard.

    I have heard that the color isn't the attraction it is the shape of flower. Is this true.?
