    Hummers are Back

    We have had a invasion of hummers in our area.Today while putting up feeders they just keep flying in in large numbers,looks like a good year for the little boogers.

    BIRDS!!! :laugh: I'm so sorry! I misunderstood. I thought you meant the General Motor's Hummer 1 - 3. I know they are gas guzzlers, but I love them. Sorry! Yes, I love hummingbirds, too. I have feeders on the back porch.

    Re: Hummers are Back

    Got back yeasterday from 11 days at Kerrville-Shreiner park. Had a pretty good trip and saw/heard a number of hummers buzzing around. Got a pot of water coming to a boil as I type and will have my feeder up by morning. I'm betting 4 hours until I have my first two hummers fussing over who "owns" the feeder:laugh:!

    Happy Camping!
