Hummingbird Garden

A nice hummer day

13 years ago

I have 3 regular hummers now, one female. They are feeding on two feeders hanging in trees. I have not noticed them feeding from any of my pants yet. I have a blooming Fucshia in a hanging basket very close to the feeder. They have not approached the two window feeders either, which are very near the other feeders. We had strong wind, and the feeder was swinging back and forth. One hummer hung on the feeder and seemed to enjoy the swinging. Mothers Day was fun watching the hummers today!

They eat insects for the protein and the sugar is for the energy to hunt insects. They move so fast you probably don't see them except at the feeders.
