I am new to this thread but we have been getting hummers for the last couple weeks which is about 3 weeks early this year. We are in the middle of the migratory path and get hundreds at a time for a while. I go through over a gallon of sugar water a day during that period. This year I had a couple stay all summer which is unusual but I hope it will be repeated next year.
We only get ruby throats, sigh, but what a show!

Haven't really sat down yet to get more pics, but I will have to take a minute now that their numbers are increasing exponentially.
I really enjoy reading all the posts and seeing where the little guys spend their summers.
