Re: Hoot Owl Hummers

You’re definitely on the Hummingbird Highway, Bill! Along the Snake, I don’t have near the hummer numbers. Birds taking about 6 oz total nectar/day with adult male & female Rufous coming in & Black-chinneds, again adult males & females & a few juveniles. 
 
But, making up for it with the Black-headed Grosbeaks! Going through ~4 lb of black oil sunflower seeds daily with as many as 10 at the platform feeder & 6-8 waiting in the trees. Males, females & juveniles. Seems to be a bumper crop of young, this season.
