Fantastic! About time those hummies found more of the people waiting for those precious little things!

Hummie will come right to the deck and look right at you for food

Today is quite drizzly, overcast, and a lone hummie finds its way at their favorite corner in the garden:

Here is another photo I took last 07Apr..this hummie perching at the base of a ponytail palm container....sleeping soundly for awhile..then wide awake in an instant:

My patio hummingbirds are growing up! So cute with their little beaks pointed up as they sleep.

Woo hoo, Margaret!

In the evening, hungry hummies descend on feeders and get their nectar the best they can.
