Has anyone put their feeders out yet? From the migration map, it looks like they are still a state or two away.

I put 1 out and only filled it halfway. It's been pretty chilly still but April 1st has been my day to start.

I usually have multi nests in my pine trees but have yet to spot any zipping around usually fighting each other.

Not enough flowers here yet. The small bees were mobbing the crummy little flowers on our boxwood bushes this weekend. You can tell they were desperate from not eating all winter...

My wife looked at the migration map March 10th. 2 spottings in the south part of our county, Desoto county, MS. I boiled a quart of water and added a cup of sugar. Put 1/2 cup of the mix in 8 feeders. I dumped it out after a week and made a new batch. I'm ready to dump out the 4th batch without seeing any hummers yet.
May 1st 2019 I answered a craigslist ad on the Desoto/Tunica county line. The person had 25 feeders in a flowerbed roughly 2 ft apart. There were a few hundred birds in that backyard. The person said they make 3 30 gallon pots of feed everyday.

I've had the window feeder out for the better part of a week and haven't seen a hummingbird yet. Once I spot the first bird, I put out additional feeders.

We haven't put our feeder out yet, and haven't seen any humming birds, either. We put it out first week of May last year, and got quite a good showing.

Just saw a female Ruby-Throated at the feeder!

Very cool. Haven’t seen that one before.

Just put the feeder out yesterday. Had a good group of them last year. Hoping for the same this year. Lets see what happens.

I made a new batch of sugar water yesterday. Brought the feeders in last night and washed. I put 1/2 cup per 8 feeders this morning. Got the first 2 hung this morning. While bringing out the 2nd 2 there was a ruby male looking at the ones that were hung and flew away. Bringing out the 3rd pair there was a male and female looking at the feeders. I had let my pets out earlier. When I brought the last pair out one of the cats was under the feeders and a male was looking at them. My cat looked up like, what the heck is that?
I'm sure I'll be making more sugar water per day soon. I have 10 pints size feeders.

Where are you located?

 

[SheepDog4Life]

Just saw a female Ruby-Throated at the feeder!

For the last couple days, I now have both a male and a female coming to the feeder every 30-40 minutes... so with that interval, I'm pretty sure it's just the one pair for now.

I haven't been able to watch it at dusk which is when there are normally "squabbles" as each bird tries to get one last feeding in before darkness falls.

Have seen nothing in Huntington County as of yet

 

[bcannon]

Not sure if it was male or female but I opened the door yesterday afternoon and seen one flying off. Truth be told I heard it before I seen it. Wasn't expecting to see one as it is still pretty chilly for hummys to be around I thought.
