One of my first came buzzing by my head shortly after that last big
frost we had (it amazes me how they know!) I put the feeders up the
next day and have had 3 or 4 regulars ever since--and a very tiny one
that just showed up this weekend. Yesterday I took the feeders down
to wash & refill and had two of them chattering outside the window
until I returned them :-)
Something I discovered last year--they *love* shrimp plant! I planted
some in pots on my patio and the hummers would come to the flowers
even when I stood right there watering them!
