I have been absolutely swamped with ruby-throat hummingbirds since the passing of Ivan.. which destroyed so many of their food source. As my garden took a severe hit, all I had was two feeders... as each day brought more and more hummingbirds to the yard I have since purchased 4 more feeders and have them placed all around the house. This picture of 8 was taken this morning when I was trying to capture how many were eating at one time... I've counted over 12 at one feeder but was unable to get a picture of it..

So, if you live in and around where Ivan went through.. I know this probably isn't a priority... but think of the little hummers and their lack of food and set up a feeder for them. Breaktime over.. back to cutting down trees and limbs...
