First Hummingbird Siting!

21 years ago

Moved into my house about 2 summers ago -- entire back yard was bare ground. (New development)

Since then I've planted and planted and planted.

Was concerned that due to a lack of big trees/shelter I wouldn't see any hummingbirds, so I took down the feeder.

Yesteray while in the back yard, I finally saw one, perched in the variegated maple, then he/she swooped down and started nectaring off of the orange and yellow "butterflies" gladioli.

Now that the beebalm and cardinal flower is in bloom, I'm hoping that they will stop by more often, and I will put the feeder out to boot!

They are wonderful little creatures.
