We have a beautiful Rock Garden in the backyard and we love to sit out there and watch the birds and the Spring flowers now beginning to bloom.

A little early this year, it seems like the little guys are ready to being their summer stay with us. We have two feeders on our little deck above the garage and just outside our office window. It’s not easy to get good pictures of them from this vantage point but Doug came up with the idea to add a third feeder out in the backyard in the rock garden so the camera and tripod are eye level with the feeder. The little guys cooperated in just a matter of an hour! By the next day word had gotten out and the whole gang was buzzing and nose diving between the three feeders on two sides of the house.

Reminder! The RECIPE! See my previous blog on hummingbirds for the recipe for a winning, hummingbird attracting syrup!

Coming up soon! There’s a beautiful red throated hummingbird that has been elusive to the camera in the last couple of days. Doug will persevere – all we need is for the little guy to slow down for a second!!!
