Hummingbirds!













I now have a few little Ruby-Throated Hummingbirds buzzing around my backyard! The females come to the window feeder but the males tend to be spooked easily. They all enjoy the feeder in the back yard and they love the Lilac tree that is in bloom! Male on the left, with the bright red throat and the female is on the right with the white throat.

Sapsuckers!




This week a male Yellow-Bellied Sapsucker came by and the next day the female was there too!

Busy Spring!


There have been lots of birds around the house lately! I have to fill the feeders every day! I didn't get any new birds but many are coming back for the first time this year.

This afternoon a male Yellow Warbler came right in my window as I was washing my dishes! I got to check this off my list since last year I only saw a female!
