Our hummingbirds are back! They are so amazing -- those little guys traveling that long journey from South America all the way to Mount Rainier.
We hang the feeders out on St. Patrick's Day--just in case they're a little ahead of their usual ETA. They aren't picky about the feeders--and we have several quart-sized feeders by the hot tub and the pond--their favorite spot. In the front yard flower garden, we have a Ballet Hummingbird feeder which is part-yard art and part-hummingbird feeder. I like the way it moves with a breeze--like a kinetic sculpture.
If you haven't seen it yet--you'll want to check out the PBS special on Nature. Hummingbirds: Magic in the Air. Fantastic photography and lots of information about our tiny feathered friends.PBS Show: Nature, Hummingbirds: Magic in the Air
