Never got more than a red blur of the males today. But she was taking advantage of their games to get her tummy full.
Got really windy after this, so I called it a day.
Took a long nap, and woke up to find others posting to this thread. Put a huge smile on my face. I'm so glad that you are getting out your photos of the hummers to share. All I ever get to see are the Anna's, which is great by me.
I understand from a friend of DH, that his father gets a whole bunch of different kinds of hummers at his feeder. But he kills the agressive Anna's, because they drive the others away from the feeders. That is so wrong and so sad. Any solutions to keep him from doing that in the future? Like setting up a separate Anna's feeder? How far would it have to be from the one the others use? Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with keeping both the native's and the visitors happy.
Thanks for all your comments and photos, and please, keep 'em coming!
