What are ya'll finding in your yards?
I haven't hung my new hummingbird feeder up, yet. Raccoons broke last season's feeder. I have only seen one hummer in my yard this Spring, though I'd attributed that to a lot of human activity around my house this spring (lots of kids on both sides of us, front and back yards), so there's been an overall marked reduction in ALL bird activity in my yard -- all I get lately are white-winged doves and European starlings, with an occasional golden-fronted woodpecker, handful of house finches and one or two Northern mockingbirds.
