No Hummingbirds yet



We drove to Winnipeg and back yesterday. There were many ducks on sloughs including mallards as in the photograph. Red-Winged blackbirds are very common as are crows. I saw Canada geese on some sloughs, usually just a couple.

At the feeder goldfinches continue to visit as do chipping sparrows. A northern flicker visited our lawn. It was busy finding something probably grubs.

So far we have not seen any hummingbirds visit the feeder. Of course we have not been here all the time. Certainly many small flies have visited and ended up in the reservoir of liquid somehow!
