Hello, i love having a place to post pictures of my hummingbirds and other great backyard birds i get. I am adding a few pictures of my hummingbirds. I even had one stuck in my garage who was nearly exhausted. We got him out and it happily flew off. Did you know that hummingbirds usually return to the same feeders after migrating and coming back to us. So always have your feeders up and ready to go as early as April here in the Midwest. It is now the middle of Oct and i have now took my feeders down, sadly i must say. I call them Gods Jewels, as they are a precious delicate gift. I live in a almost rural area, right on the edge of town, and we have lots of blue Spruce trees lining our backyard. We also live across the street from a lake and wooded area so i think this helps with the many hummingbirds i get.
