      Yes, we get hummers, late spring and summer. I have seen them while camping in the Adirondack mountains where there are very few flowers. I understand they also eat small insects and sap from trees. I have had them buzz right up to my face and check out my glasses. Cute little things.

          Loli, they have been hit hard by the Trichomonosis parasite disease but hopefully are gradually increasing again. The cleaning of feeders and tables are a great help.

                      Not flying/buzzing, but these chaps jumping around, I spotted the one on the grass first on the CCTV and thought it was a mouse, after turning the security light on all was revealed, I had a hedgehog last night :).
