Related: About this forumI put my hummingbird feeders out today.
I wonder how long before those little feathered jewels will arrive in my area. Sightings have been reported not too far south of me, so maybe in the next few days.

..soon. When I first moved here I would have to have 3 feeders out for all the birds. Now I only need 1. I think their migration patterns have changed over the last 25 years.

We are not a allowed to hang them on our porch or put them in the flower beds ( actually bush beds ) next to our apartments. I miss humming birds and my cats miss their bird tv.

Lots of different ones available on Amazon. Is that something you could do?
