Hummingbird and Butterfly Gardening: Still have a Ruby Throated Hummer, 1 by Joyous

We have been watching this hummer for the last 3 weeks and it seems in no hurry to go south. It seems like the same one. Always sits in the same spots and is not too scared of us. We sit on the porch and it comes to the feeder that is about 5 feet from us.

My father who now lives with us is worried that he will get stuck here!! Every morning the first thing he does is stand in his window watching to see the hummer. He is really getting a kick out of it staying so long.

We have had several mid 30's to 40's nights but he keeps coming back. Not many of my flowers are still in blossom other than the ones in the greenhouse and those are red! Have been worried that it will get stuck in there but we are safe so far.
