Happy Monday! So here are the hummies' photos for the day! I deliberately did not refill the smaller nectar feeders. I notice the hummies have a habit of selfishly hoarding the bigger stash, drinking first from all the smaller ones, chasing away those that try to drink from the bigger feeder. So now, all of them have no choice but to drink from the bigger one Big Grin

I'm still waiting for mine. Impatiently waiting. Last year it was later than this when they arrived here. Folks farther north have them already. I'm so impatient. Green Grin! Confused Green Grin!

I am enjoying all the wonderful photos here ! Smiling

I thought I would add one. We have a hummingbird that built a nest on our patio last spring and raised two families over time in it. This year she is once again using the nest after building the old walls up to twice the old height. Her first egg appeared on 3-29. A day or two later the second egg appeared. Yesterday the first egg hatched. This is the shot I got of the baby next to the unhatched egg today.
