~My little friends are back!! I just walked into the kitchen and there he was! Of course I had to do a double take, but it was true, they are back! On the feeder just like hanging out like he( or she) had never left! It has been a long time, but they have made it back. It amazes me each year that they can go so far, and return. How wonderful is nature! So, we are expecting some very cold temps tonight and tomorrow, but according to my research attempts, if the hummingbirds have a reliable source of food, they should be able to handle the colder temperatures. Let us hope so at least! I believe this should be about our last dip down. So, today my heart is full of joy!
ps, picture from last fall, they are so fast I could not get to my camera fast enough!
Aw, he’s so cute!!! Maybe next time you’ll get a new pic of the little guy.
Hi fellow enthusiast!
I envy you! The best I can do is my friendly blackbird who we have nicknamed Speckles. He gets tamer by the day and his family demand food now. I have written an article about my star:

Congratulations on capturing the photograph.
All the best

I am soon going to have to put my feeders out! They always surprise me with their timing! I’d like to be prepared this year!
