IRIS, be patient. They will return. We are starting to see ours on a regular basis now. Don't have a window mounted feeder yet, but did hang one in front of the dining room window. Forgot it was there and walked right up on a hummer and scared him away. Darn it. I'll have to learn to look before walking up to the window. We have 3 feeders up now. I want to hang more than we have in the past. It is so fun to watch them chase each other from feeder to feeder. They're like little heat seeking missles flying by.

Our pond is just a little 10' x 5' garden pond. We hope to trim the liner this weekend and start some landscaping around it. DH is anxious to put fish in it. My color scheme for flowers in that area is pink, purple and white. Anyone know where to get pink or purple fish? The orange ones will clash! LOL! Here's a shot of the pond with a hummingbird feeder in the foreground.
