Just saw our first humming bird of the season. It was at the wigelia bush out side the kitchen window. No pictures tho, it was to fast and I was to slow getting the camera

My husband and I watch a pair of hummers that showed up here in Maryland about May first: usually we don't figure on seeing them until the middle of the month. So far, there's only been the single pair.

Still waiting for mine to show up. All ready for them! Mom has her first one come the same day we hung the fuschia.

Our hummingbird feeder has been taken over by squatters/ thieves. Not sure what kind of birds but did see a cardinal, blue jay, woodpecker and few others. DH is refusing to put any more "juice" in it til they leave it alone. These squatters get on the edge and just send that feeder swinging like a trapeze bar. Funny but we enjoyed watching the hummers.

I'm so lucky, I have several that stay all winter! If we get a freeze I'm kept busy replacing the frozen nectar. The Anna's and the Rufous are 2 kinds we get. With my ankle broken, my DGS used a command hook to hang a tube feeder outside my window that I can fill! Many pleasant hours hand-quilting and watching the birds! Because I can only manage the one feeder at the moment, it truly needs filling twice a day! Surprising how late into the evening they feed!
Sorry, didn't mean to hi-jack this post, and I hope everybody's hummer come back soon! Enjoy!

Ours come back in March. We have mostly the ruby throat in my yard. Love watching them and the grand kids love them.

Our hummers have been here for about a month. Last night there was quite a dual. As far as we can tell there are 3 different kinds. Each have their own personalities.... some wiggle their tails the entire time they feed and others hold perfectly still. Ours stay until about 9ish in the evening. We love them.

Ours came back three weeks ago. I had to take down the regular bird feeders since we have a hungry bear. But they do not bother with the humming bird feed. Yah...so I have three out and many hummers. They love to battle...even though there is plently for all.

Our hummers usually show up about April 10th or 12th. I have decided to not feed them. I have enough chores ans decided that is one I can stop. We feed the other wild birds. I do have flowers blooming and Honeysuckle bush. There is a younger neighbor up the street that feeds them.
