homefire 2,581 Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Well it's official. Summer's just days away. Cazy chit. Just earlier today I told WWWW ( Wicket Wanda the Wonder Wife) we need some new humming bird feeders this year... The first one of the year just shown up just now. Guess they had they're ears on. I managed to find one feeder still functional and got it up. They must travel in groups. I've counted like 7 different birds this morning. Guess they see this house as a Dependable Source of Suckers ? Time to dig out the Sluice and head up the hill I guess. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

homefire 2,581 Posted March 30, 2019 Author Share Posted March 30, 2019 Yep, you can just about set the calendar using the things. Actually I'm thinking these guys are a few days early this year . Usually the first two or three days of this month. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AzNuggetBob 1,553 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 I dont know chrisski they disappear when it snows in Phoenix? although rare. maybe they don't like crashing into snow flakes. I think they migrate in most areas? they are fun to watch. amazing little birds. AzNuggetBob Quote Link to post Share on other sites
homefire 2,581 Posted April 6, 2019 Author Share Posted April 6, 2019 We had them most of the year round in Tucson but not the whole year. For sure but here they all head down into Deep Mexico or further. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bedrock Bob 4,225 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Way up in the Pecos there is a spot where there are thousands of hummers. I used to go by there all the time. They have a really neat operation and the hummers are a big part of the show. They feed 22 gallons of sugar water a day to those little rascals! http://www.pecoswilderness.com/#hummers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Relichunter2016 723 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 In the Sierra's they show up in early spring ..when it warms up a bit. I have 2 feeders going..there are hundreds living in the nearby oak trees..swooping down like a f16..to the feeders. At times they buzz so close to me I wonder how the heck maneuver so fast and change directions instantly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
