[QUOTE="Steelers Fan, post: 4316023, member: 16254"] This was off year for me. I saw a couple of scouts (one was a Black-Chinned) early April, then nothing for weeks. Finally, I seen a few hanging out the last few weeks. I keep the food fresh and all but this year was just different. Normally I have 3 show up (1 male & 2 females Ruby-Throated) and end up with 6-7 by end of year. Not a large crowd at all even though I run 3 feeders, one in the front and two in the back yard. I guess this particular spot is not a haven of any type but generally consistent. They do return to the same spots each year. Proof of that is two different years I was slow to get the feeders out. The hummers would return in the spring and be hovering outside the living room window (where a feeder has been placed for 18yrs) staring in the house, doing that chirping thing. I think they were saying [I][B]"Hey Bud, WTF, I just flew a looong asss way and I'm thirsty!"[/B][/I] [/QUOTE]
