[cayugabirds-l] Ruby-throated Hummingbird
Hi All, I have kept my hummingbird cafe open and a juvenile was feeding on the salvia. I put a feeder out, but they always seem to just choose the flowers.

[cayugabirds-l] Ruby-throated Hummingbird
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.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
[cayugabirds-l] Ruby throated Hummingbird
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 nearby. I think they have left the juvenile to fend itself while they are starting another family. A cute family of Chipping Sparrows have been spending time in the yard. Babies don't know where to go they seem so confused while the parent seem to be collecting grass seeds and feeding them. Also a chickadee family also spent a fair bit of time in the yard in the morning. Today morning at my moth sheet there were three large Catocala moths and all three were Oldwife Underwing, Catocala paleogamma. Each moth has a wingspan of about 70-80 cm with yellow hindwing with black border. Besides these there were at least 20 more species of moths including a Leopard moth and several individuals of Pale Panthea. Finally, my fat woodchuck was out and feeding. He did not suspect me opening the door. After a few seconds he realized I was standing there. We both stared at each other for a few seconds and then seeing no threat he continued feeding. He took offense to my calling him rascal and that is when he bolted.

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 nectar isn't sweet enough? Melanie On 5/4/2015 12:34 PM, Marie P.

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

[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 always marveled at the Common Witch Hazel just outside my kitchen window, with its peculiar yellow flowers which it produces September to November. I have never seen a Ruby-throated Hummingbird seek nectar from the Witch Hazel before. -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
