Re: Cardinals are back! and other sightings

<snip>
I was wondering about when to put the hummer feeder out? I hesitated
because
I feared we would have another freezing night. Have any hummers showed up
yet?

Lee, hummingbirds make the decision of when and where to migrate based on a
number of things, but the presence or absence of your feeder isn't one of
them. However, if you put one out, and they pass by, they will use it and
appreciate the energy boost.

Don't worry about a freezing night, hummers hibernate at night to conserve
their energy reserves. http://www.outoftheearth.com/hummbrd.htm

I have had one feeder up in NC, but so far I think I have only been feeding
bees and ants

Keep the faith, they will show.
