COOLER TEMPS....LONGER HUMMINGBIRD VISITS....HAPPY SEPTEMBER!!
Richelle Hunter
The overnight and early morning temperatures have certainly taken a dive....actually quite below what the normal should be! While in our kitchen this morning, we noticed a Hummingbird at one of our nectar feeders. We really should have kept track of how long he stayed at the feeder but we can say that we were able to capture several videos and photos. We were not even taking these for the whole time that he was here! You may notice the same around your feeders with the cooler/cold temperatures. Please keep feeders cleaned & filled for a while yet....both Orioles & Hummingbirds will be here for a bit or will be traveling through...thanks for giving them a hand!! (While we had Orioles at our feeders yesterday, we generally find that they move on well before the Hummingbirds.)
