Any time you contaminate CS you likely make photo-reactive compounds.
Hummingbirds also eat bugs and seeds..then hang out at the energy bar.

We put up a humming bird feeder last week. Normally you have to change the
sugar water in it every couple of days because it will ferment. I figured
that if I used colloidal silver to make the sugar water, it should not
ferment. I was surprised that shortly after making the nectar it turned
somewhat dark, like there was aggregation of the silver. However, even
after 5 days, it is still in suspension, so I am somewhat confused. Also
I am concerned that it might cause problems for the humming bird, if it
kills the bacteria necessary for digestion. I think others have given CS
to their birds without any problem, but since a hummingbird eats nectar
almost exclusively, their digestion might be more like a honeybee than
most birds.
Any comments?
