The Hummingbirds are coming!


Every spring I look forward to the arrival of them. They are amazing little birds. There is a neat website...


This site tracks the migration of the hummingbirds. People can add their sightings to the map. There is also maps from past years. It is truly exciting. I have already put out a couple feeders for them. The Orioles also arrive around the same time as the hummers. Sooooo I have also put out an oriole feeder. The Starlings have found the grape jelly. Last season it was the Mockingbirds that found the jelly. Of course any of the fruit eaters would love it. So there they sit, the feeders, waiting in the open sunlight, visible to all the tropical vacationers on their way back for the Spring and Summer months.

So if you happen to see the hummingbirds or even the orioles, email me! I'll just wait here by the kitchen window....watching....and waiting.
