Everything but a Hummingbird

Apparently, my hummingbird feeder full of sugar water is attractive to all of the birds in the area, except for the actual hummingbirds. I’ve actually been trying off and on for a couple of weeks to take a picture of the sparrows that frequent my hummingbird feeder. I finally sneaked up on one today, which is odd. Normally, they fly off, and normally there are 2 or 3 on this feeder, rather than just one solitary bird.

Sparrow on my Hummingbird Feeder

Can anyone help me figure out how I can actually attract hummingbirds to this, instead of the sparrows? I mean, I have two bird seed feeders up around the yard for them, but they drink from this one all the time. Not that I mind, but the hummingbirds won’t eat their bird seed, it doesn’t seem fair that they drink all the hummingbird’s sugar water 🙂
