  • hummer activity 2021

    I don't know if it's the extreme heat or global warming or what but this
    has to be one of the worst years for hummer activity in recent memory.

    I was having to refill my two tube feeders about every 10 days even
    though I haven't spotted a single hummer drinking from it this season,
    but now even that activity has slowed down.

    I am certainly not having that problem. I have only one hummingbird
    feeder and I have several female and more than one male ruby-throats
    coming around. They're also sipping at the pink flowers (I have no idea
    what they are) that are growing near the feeder.
