Saw my first Hummers of the year at work today. There was a male at the feeder and soon a female arrived. I watched them several times during the day. One of my employees saw one last week but today was my first siteing, I'm happy, now can't wait until they show up at home.

Very cool Donny. I'm seeing mine more frequently now but they are ever so shy this year. Don't think they could be returnees cause I sure didn't see this shyness in years before.

Donny, it's a week later, you got any at home yet? I'm still watching the empty feeder feverishly, here in CT.

Saw my first one yesterday at 12:10 pm. Seems to be a returning female, I reconize the posturing and she heads away from the feeder to the same nesting area of last year. They were about 22 days late this year here at home. Posted a shot ......from the feeder..... in the gallery..couldn't resist.
I guess, be patient, although my patience was about to run out.

Good deal, Donny.

Still waiting up here. If this frigid weather would get lost maybe the Hummers would settle in. I think it will be about 80º this Sunday. Fingers are crossed.
