My hummingbird feeder surprise!

Okay... This is interesting.. ha ha.. I am learning that not only Hummingbirds, enjoy the sweet taste of nectar!

I originally put the feeder out early this year.. because standing on my porch one day.. planting my springtime flowers, brought a familiar buzzing sound to me. My little hummers were back and told me loud and clear.

Like little helicopters, hovering and asking.. whats up? Where's our nectar!!?? They seem to just communicate to ya. So in I went to get it for them.

Shortly after putting the old feeder out again for the second year.. I found this guy on it!! And he wasn't the least bit hesitant, despite our presence! What a beautiful bird.

He now visits the feeder at least once or twice a day.. that I have seen.

wonder if the hummingbirds are the same from last year? They certainly look and act the same!!

The male last year seemed to always come and perch nearby me after a drink. sit, fluff up, listen to me.. and act ever so comfortable..

Check him out in the lower picture under the Woodpecker!! He seemed to be saying.. I'm listening.. I promise I am!! I couldn't add two pictures I will in another submission.

Ever so fond of birding.
