Hi, again,dellrose,

I was curious about your large hummer population (and your bluebirds, too!) so I looked up Conway MO on the Avian Flyway Maps, and it looks like you may be in the middle of the Missouri Flyway which leads into the Mississippi Flyway. So that might explain (to me, anyway) why you have so so so many birdy visitors.

So, have you heard anything about the Missouri Flyway and/or the Mississippi Flyway or if indeed your home is situated along it?

Just wondering! (-: t.

Below is a map of Avian Byways in the US from the 'Science Mouse' Blog which you can find at this link: http://www.sciencemouse.com/2009/04/flyways-highways-in-the-...
