I saw my first on my feeder in Burns Harbor, IN

First sighting JUST NOW

We saw/heard one buzz past a couple weeks ago in Owen County. The feeder here in Indy has been out for a week but I think they've been stopping by, I just haven't seen them.

I got the same feeder. Do you do anything special to try and keep bugs out?

The biggest problem I have with that feeder in that location is ants climbing up the shepherds hook. I spray bug killer at the base and half way up the pole to keep them off and not affect the hummers.

I don't try to keep the bees away as they need all the help they can get.
