If you actually want hummingbirds in your yard, set aside the feeder for a moment. There's a native plant they will fight each other over. It's coral honeysuckle, also called trumpet honeysuckle. It's a twining vine native across the eastern and southeastern US, and it throws out clusters of long scarlet-red tubes with yellow throats from spring straight through fall. Those tubes are shaped almost exactly to fit the bill and tongue of a ruby-throated hummingbird, the common hummingbird across most of the East. A feeder is sugar water you have to mix, clean, and scrub before it ferments and spreads disease. This is a plant that just makes fresh nectar every day for months. This isn't honeysuckle the invasive stuff strangling the woods. That's Japanese honeysuckle. Coral honeysuckle is the native cousin, and it's well-behaved. It climbs a trellis or fence, tops out around fifteen or twenty feet, and a light yearly trim keeps it in line. It won't take over. The flowers also feed native bees and hummingbird moths, the red berries that follow feed robins, thrushes, and waxwings into fall, and the tangle gives small birds cover to nest in.

Find it. I once saw a documentary that claimed hummingbirds ride under the wings of Canadian Geese. Just because someone makes a documentary doesn’t make it true. The POWs who are part of the claim said it was patently false. Go figure. Humans make up lots of stories.

They must be much tougher than California hummingbirds. Ours fly to shelter at the first few drops😆

I saw a flock of 6 hummingbirds in my dream along 2 Zplus C1. They were escorting a massive dark colored cargo plane across a night city… Here is the recolor

Hummingbird prefer tube shaped flowers. This is a great option. I didn’t put out feeders this year yet I have several hummingbirds visiting the yard because of my bushes with tube shaped flowers.
