Funny, I was thinking about the hummingbirds the other day, and remembering my Mom's adage: Have the feeders up by Mother's Day. Within a day or two of Mother's Day, we'd see the hummer's!
I did have a bear get to my bird feeders the other night (empty) but not taken in. He (she) bent the wrought iron stand over like it was a coat hanger!!! I feel good, though, 'cause I straightened it up! Strong like bear!!!!!
I will get more seed, and put them out, but will have to bring them in each night. Love the goldfinch, purple & house finches, grosbeaks, cardinals, etc.
