2024 Hummingbirds
      #264772 - 04/21/24 03:56 PM

These threads are more exciting the sports threads so why not date them and start a new one every year?

I put my feeder out April 14 and had birds on it April 16.

I have 2-4 buzzing it daily now. I suppose when the cold air moves out for good, they'll pile up like usual.

Got a line on 50lbs of free sugar, so I'll either feed the birds or make a lil 'shine..

Pictures forthcoming in the future

I just put mine out on Monday 4/29. I have not seen much, just a few, but that's not unusual for Spring around here. They have tons of natural options for a few more weeks. And with the proliferation of this invasive honeysuckle, it may be June before I see my usual swarm of them.

I've got a couple dozen now.

Went thru a gallon of nectar in about 3 days on two feeders this week.

Wu, been forgetting to tell you, but seen a couple orioles down this way. One was baltimore and the other looked like orchard.
