Yes, I have a great variety but did you notice. Except for the verdins, they are all dull brown birds. But they are great to watch. I have three hummingbird nests that keep getting rehabbed and used every year. Last year had a new nest built right by the window going up to DH's cave. Every time DH would go up to his office, this wonderful little hummer would spray this window with a white milky liquid. This is a 5'x4' window. There are two stacked. She gets both windows. To high up for us to clean. I will not move the nest. She is lucky I am a hummingbird lover. They build these nest in fig vine. At the top of the courtyard the vines starts to hang down. That is where they build their nest. When it is windy the nests swing back and forth. This is a photo of a pair early last year. They were much further down he fig vine than normal. I got on a ladder and took this photo. Scary, because I have a balance problem.
