It's Officially Spring -- My Hummingbirds Are Back!

Yay! My amazing hummingbirds are back!

They're here! They're back! My amazing hummingbirds are back. Good riddance nasty old winter with your terrible polar vortex.

A few days ago, I was pleasantly surprised when I glanced outside my window and saw a hummingbird checking out my feeder for food. I love hummingbirds. I am so glad that they are back. However, I wasn't ready. Shame on me. I was caught by surprise.

My hummingbird feeder has been outside all winter and I have not cleaned it, much less have fresh food out for them. I intended to be ready, but I wasn't. Going forward I intend on being better prepared for my little friends. It is extremely important for them to get enough nectar in order to survive.

I hope my fellow hummingbird lovers are not as slack as I've been. If you're going to use the same hummingbird feeders as last year, they need to be cleaned. Or you can buy or make new ones.
