More Hummingbirds



Hummingbirds are now regularly visiting the feeder. Half the liquid is gone within a few days. It is good that it is not get too stale or ferment in any event. The hummingbirds are rather pugnacious. If one is feeding it is often driven off by another hummingbird.

I saw another pine grosbeak today and for the first time I had a brief sighting of a cowbird on the ground near the feeder. The are the usual chickadees, chipping sparrows, and goldfinches as visitor and a couple of house sparrows. A goofy crow visits too engaging in acrobatics to try and reach the seed while balancing on the feeder.
