When I got home from work this evening, my husband told me that we had at
least two hummingbirds in our yard.
He said one of them was feeding in a patch of Virginia Bluebells. A quick
web search confirmed that bluebells are a nectar source for hummingbirds.
Perhaps some of you might consider adding them to your yard. It's a
beautiful plant.
The hummingbirds also visited one of my feeders.
Thursday was a great day for watching my seed feeders and the yard around
them. I saw 21 species in a ten minute period, including a male
Rose-breasted Grosbeak, male indigo bunting, male Yellow-rumped Warbler, two female
Pine Siskins, Gray Catbird, three Swainson's Thrushes, White-crowned and
White-throated sparrows, House and Carolina Wrens. I heard a Wood Thrush
earlier that morning.
Gotta love Spring!
