And here it is...
I put up the hummingbird feeders on Monday.... almost immediately Bill heard that familiar sound of one flying close by... but it was a day or so later before I actually saw one.
By Wednesday I was seeing one but wasn't quick enough to snap a photo...
Today... by golly, the little rascal has been zipping in and out all day... and although it's not real good, I got him.
Here in Ohio we get only the Ruby-throated Hummingbirds...
But that's okay with me.... I'll enjoy whatever stops by.
However.... this morning I heard the Wood Thrush behind our rig... their sound has to be one of the most beautiful bird songs ever! Later today I heard the Towhee telling me to "drink your tea"....
Yes, it's really springtime here... even at 32 degrees at 6:00 this morning, that's so typical for April.
That's All For Today!
I need to get my hummingbird feeder up very soon. I want to plant a few flowers that will attract more. I love watching them.
ReplyDeleteWe enjoy our hummingbird feeder and have had them coming for some time now. We get the migration, but a few stay around here for the summer. Good picture of that hummer, they are hard to get.
ReplyDeleteAh, lucky you - we won't see any Hummers until the end of July!
ReplyDeleteWhen the hummers come, they knock on the door if the feeders aren't out.
ReplyDeleteI have a feeder just like that and two hummingbirds now who come visit. No photos yet. Nice one you got!
ReplyDeleteNice to have the company and the wonderful spring weather.
ReplyDeleteWe've been getting quite a few hummers as well ... managed a photo through the windshield yesterday, but I'm hoping the weather will cooperate for me to sit outside with the camera ready in the next day or two.
ReplyDeleteOh how I miss seeing hummingbirds. We had so many at our feeders and flowers in Southern California, especially in Palm Springs.
ReplyDeleteSometimes one is all you need.
