In SW Washington state I have resident hummers that stay all year! And more come in March/April! Several times a day in winter I hang out "thawed" nectar for them. A hint: when I had a broken ankle and could not go out into the yard I hung a little Command hook on the window and hung one of the little Planter box feeders on it. Just have to open the window to fill so now I get to enjoy it up close all day! At this time of year I fill it twice a day at least.

My poor dog stuck her nose out of the window yesterday and a female hummer hovered a inch from it! Looked like she thought it was a new feeder!! Weirder is that my dog does not even seem to notice them!

Loved seeing that, thank you so much. Mine came back early March. Can't wait to see them come back each year.

Very cool! I saw a white one around my backyard the other day!

Love hummers. One just showed up a few days ago. The earliest we have ever seen.

Ditter and Kitsie, thank you very much for posting one of my favorite things.,

Thanks Ditter. Glad you got your garden in so we could all enjoy all the fun and wonderful things you find to share.

If you've never read it, you should go to Amazon and search "A Hummingbird In My House". It's the story of a hummer that wintered over in someone's house. It is fascinating.

This thread made me go looking for a webcam I watched a few years ago. This was a live camera on a hummer nest. I was totally addicted to but haven't watched for a long time. Now I can't find it so if anyone knows the fate of Phoebe the Hummingbird, I'd love to know. There are still lots of YouTube videos of her but I don't see anything since 2014. She evidently disappeared and this video shows the rescue of her chicks.

Make a swing for your hummingbird.

I read about making a swing on the net somewhere. Take a 3 or 4 inch long skewer and hang it from a tree branch with 2 pieces of string. Make it look like a swing.
My hummers aren't here yet; they usually come around Mother's Day. But I want to have my swing ready for them.

Thanks Ditter! I love hummers! Lucky for me they are year-round residents here, although I think there are only four of them visiting my feeder and flowers. They are great to watch. :)
