Hummingbirds - Bird Talk.

Stumbled across a 'smart' HB feeder with a wide angle WiFi camera and a solar cell to power the camera. Hunnert bux.

Nnnnnope.

Link?

It's been raining cats and dogs here...the Anna's are still out and about. I took the dog out to do his bidness...I was swarmed by 3 of the little buggers because I was standing too close to one of the feeders.

I've got different birds roosting under my awings, front and rear. But only at night. If I step out the door for any reason after dark they scatter. If they'd just sit still, I'd never even see them.

I've seen a few different ones now. Serarch AMZ and you should find them.

Feeders are not just for hummingbirds. This little one had a sweet tooth.

Around here, we get the hummingbirds’ big cousins…

Black bear drinks from hummingbird feeder

Footage of a mother bear drinking every last drop of sugar water from a hummingbird feeder in Pennsylvania. The video, captured on August 12, shows the bear tilting the feeder to drink. "You can tell she knows better, she is NOT supposed to be on the deck. That is why she leaves watching...

Orioles will drink the sugar water if you take off the bee guards.

Gila woodpeckers too.

I've got an idiot bully Mockingbird defending the feeders, chasing the Cardinals off. Turd will dive bomb them. Doesn't seem to bother the sparrows, wrens, finches, etc.

My 5 feeders are getting close to no attention. Maybe it's the season, more likely the fact that I wasn't changing the nectar as frequently as I should. I changed all of them 4 days ago, there's been barely a nibble. The level of nectar will go up or down depending on the temperature because gases expand when heated.

I saw a HB today finally flying in the back yard chasing a bird 10 times it size, so defending it's territory. I figure any HBs who lost faith in my feeders will be back, will come and check the territory they used to visit... any time now. Spring has been showing major signs here the last week or so.

Gila woodpeckers too.

Edit: now they've figured out how to use their long tongues to extract the nectar, bee guards or not.

I got a Birdfy feeder and we put it outside our bedroom. Occasionally a bird will fly into our window. Today one of them flew head on into the window. Hope it made it

Keep stuff far away from windows.

I have a small tray suction-cupped to my window. Has room for 2 finches. I keep it stocked with sunflower seed. A squirrel pulled the screen off the window frame trying to reach it. I found it on the ground. Must not have been fastened securely.
