Put On Your Hard Hat

Put on your hard hat..we're going hummingbird watching!

It's that time again...time for the hummers to leave the Northern states and head South for the Winter.




I have 2 feeders out..one in the front and one in the back, and you can see them all day long..flitting to and fro, fighting for the right to sip the nectar. You can sit out and watch them, but better put on a hard hat and a hummingbird proof vest..or be prepared to duck and cover, because when they are stocking up for their loooong journey South, NOTHING will stop them, not even a human that happens to get in their way. We've never been hit by one, but have had lots of "Close Encounters of the Hummingbird Kind".

Get your feeders filled and enjoy the show! It'll be over by October, so enjoy it while you can..it's the Greatest Show on Earth!
