    Hang This Near Your Window Hummingbird Feeder

    May 5, 2009 /

    Hummingbird Nesting Material If you have a window hummingbird feeder at home, adding this amazing new product may just attract more of the tiny jewels and keep them around your yard.   The new Hummer Helper is nesting material designed especially for hummingbirds.   It comes in an attractive red basket with a hanging chain, and has even been endorsed by The Hummingbird Society.  They say it is aimed at encouraging nesting in a natural way, and it has the potential to help you bring more hummers where you can observe them, thus increasing the odds they will nest near you.  The latter assures that more fledglings will visit your window hummingbird feeder.

    Hummingbirds are known to practice “site fidelity” and return to the same site every year, you’ll likely see an increased hummingbird population in your yard by adding some Hummer Helper.hmmingbirdbird with nesting material

    The First Hummingbird and Happy Easter

    April 11, 2009 /

    happy easterJust wanted to wish all a very Happy Easter Holiday!

    It saddens me to see that many agricultural-type stores still sell baby chicks and rabbits at Easter.  While buying some seed for my many wild bird feeders the other day, I couldn’t help but look in the metal water trough where the chicks were contained.  What about the sickly one?  Would he make it? Did anyone even care?  I found it repulsive, and told the manager about the sick bird, then left the establishment to purchase birdseed elsewhere.

    On a much happier note, the first hummingbird was spotted at my feeder yesterday!  He must be tired from the long journey, and happy to have found his old feeder ready and waiting on him.  Last summer I had two leaf misters set out, and the hummingbirds absolutely loved them.  They would play and flit around everyday in the fine mist.  I wonder if he was looking for that too?  Not quite warm enough yet in Atlanta for that.
