1. That's what you get when...

3. Maybe they are thirsty?

Do you have water out for them?

Just a thought.

[mopinko]

4. could be, but not necessarily.

fowl do have tastes, likes and dislikes.
my chickens def have preferences for certain weeds.

9. Plumping hummingbirds.....

for your Thanksgiving table? Always the trendsetter, hey Jim?

15. More efficient.

Hummingbirds take less time to cook than turkeys.

[SergeStorms]

25. Mmmmmm.....

Deep fried Hummingbird. If it weren't for the COVID I'd invite myself down for Thanksgiving dinner. I'll have to settle for Turkey with the family, I guess.

Enjoy!

I saw two turkeys in a freshly cut hay field today. I've never seen them at a feeder, especially not one for hummingbirds.

[getagrip_already]

24. just fyi, but bees and wasps/hornets frequently will drink out of the feeders as well.....

If you hear a helicopter approaching, run!

[Talitha]

26. They definitely gobbled up too much of the stuff.

27. Turkey!

28. My Sister Does Have A Bunch Of Hummingbird Feeders

In her front & back yards. She also has a couple different kinds of plants (bushes?) in the back yard that have bugle shaped flowers. She gets 100's of hummingbirds doing a rotation around her house every day through the summer. They're really fun to watch too. They're very territorial & noisier than you'd think for such little birds. They buzz each other & run off other hummingbirds & seldom share a feeder even though they have multiple "flowers".

[Rhiannon12866]

30. I've seen them and they are the most amazing little things

I love fuchsias and when I've had them hanging outside, hummingbirds showed up! I really ought to get another one - or a hummingbird feeder - since hummingbirds are the most fascinating to watch!

[UTUSN]

29. Hah! - feel good about fluffing me?

[brer cat]

31. LOL nt
