no not that kind
hummingbirds.
When we replaced our hummingbird feed with another utilitarian red and yellow plastic feeder, I splurged and bought a second: a little green glass one with a bright red feeding tube. Hummingbirds are territorial little bastards and even though our feeder has four feeding tubes, I have never seen more than one in use at a time; they fight and scold and drive each other away.
So I thought it would be nice to put up another feeder for the defeated one to use. However, though the big feeder was emptied regularly, the syrup level in the pretty little green globe never moved.
So Sunday afternoon, we moved it to the window by my computer terminal. So far I have spotted two little hummingbirds using it. They are small enough that they could be this year's hatchlings.
I IZ DED OF TEH CUTE.
