A friend in Lansing, on East Shore Circle, saw a male hummingbird on Tuesday evening. It was looking for the feeder which, of course, hadn't been put out yet. It seems way too early for hummingbirds. -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.Nor

Last two days a Ruby-throated Hummingbird female has started visiting my garden. Yesterday I saw her on burdock flowers today I saw her cardinal flowers. She spent approximately five minutes at the cardinal flowers. A young Robin has been calling fairly incessantly but I don't see any parents

Pat and I have noticed that too: the newly-arrived male hummer visits the feeders, but doesn't drink much. Just at a guess, I think he may be more interested in protein than carbs, so soon after his arduous journey. But he's still possessive about his territory's bright red assets. -Geo Kloppel

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Ruby-throated Hummingbird!

A male Ruby-throated Hummingbird came and hovered near my face yesterday afternoon (Wood Road, Freeville), zipped over to where I had a feeder last year and left in disappointment. I quickly hung a second feeder in that spot but have seen or heard no sign of the bird since. It's possible the ne

Hooray! This makes me feel perfectly vindicated for buying a fuchsia last week! Filled with hope and anticipation, I put out a feeder this morning. I really enjoyed the seminar last night, Marie! Melanie On 5/4/2015 12:34 PM, Marie P. Read wrote: ...a male Ruby-throated Hummingbird at my fee

[cayugabirds-l] Ruby-throated Hummingbird and Common Witch Hazel

This morning I had the privilege to watch a female RTHumminbird work very carefully and thoroughly among Common Witch-Hazel flowers. She even sat on a branch for a few moments, to take advantage of several flowers clustered close together. We have lived here for exactly 30 years, and I have alwa

To my surprise this afternoon, while out in my back garden during a brief sunny spell, a female ruby-throat appeared on my late-blooming pineapple sage plant. And there I'd been so cross with the plant for blooming so late this year. Thank goodness it provided some much needed sustenance for t

I was a little surprised to see a Ruby-throated Hummingbird at my feeder as it was getting dark this evening. Pretty late date for them up here on the mountain. Marie Marie Read Wildlife Photography 452 Ringwood Road Freeville NY 13068 USA Phone 607-539-6608 e-mail m...@cornell.edu http://
