Raw sugar contains iron which is toxic to hummingbirds. Please use refined sugar.

Dear neighbors: In preparation for the arrival of hummingbirds, I filled our feeder with sugar water. This time I used raw sugar rather than refined sugar. The color of the mix is therefore brown rather than clear. What is your advice? Thanks in advance. Carolina
