Hummingbird Garden

The wait is over

18 years ago

Finally the male is back "home" again. He must have been thirsty, as he stayed on the perch for the longest time. There are very strong winds today, and it must have helped him somewhat, as he's a day earlier this year.

I will forever be awed at the GPS skills they use twice a year.

esrungg- I'm in Kazoo county, so both of us had the chilly temps last night. Have you seen your male yet today? I have not seen the male from yesterday, just those silly house finches on the feeders. Yesterday, a B. Oriole came twice, but he's a no show today also.
