🍁💙FALL MIGRATION VIDEO - SPECIAL REPORT!🍁
6 feeders I have to change twice a day. At least 50 hummingbirds maybe more. So hard to keep track since they are always buzzing, flying and moving so fast.

HELLO HUMMER CHARM! 👋🏼😊 A day to celebrate our little treasures!

😎😎Daily Dose of Hummingbird Happiness by Barbara VanMatre!😎😎 Happy National Hummingbird Day Hummer Charm and what a day it is! This day is celebrated every year on the first Saturday in September. It was created to raise awareness of our tiny flying gems. You are in the perfect group to learn a lot about hummingbirds.
This morning the Ruby-throated are passing through in big numbers prompting me to add more feeders to my yard. I’m up to 14 now. I’ve also already documented 4 Rufous, one which arrived this morning. They have all been females. Rufous are somewhat rare in South Texas. Last year I only had 3 total and the year before I had 30 so you just never know what will show up. If you see any hummingbirds at your feeders that look different than what you are use to seeing try to get a photo. Your cell phone camera can capture a good photo you can then put in Merlin for ID. You can also post your photo here and our members can help with identification. These photos are two immature male Ruby-throated. They went round and round in the flowers in one of the new planter boxes. They looked like tiny dancers twirling around each other. They reminded me of Elton John’s song Tiny Dancer. They stayed long enough for me to get alot of photos. Please continue to report your sightings or your departures. Have an awesome Saturday Hummer Charm!😎😎Corpus Christi, Texas 9-5-26

💜HUMMINGBIRD VIDEO-of-the-day💜

Camping in Merritt BC Canada- These little beauties were very hungry and happy to see me. It’s very very dry here with so much wildfire smoke, seeing them was a lovely part of this camping adventure.

😎😎Daily Dose of Hummingbird Happiness by Barbara VanMatre!😎😎
Howdy from South Texas where the heat continues with no end in sight. I will resume Feathered Friends Friday when migration is over. Too many hummingbirds to report about right now. My backyard hummingbird buffet is open for business. This is an eat all you want buffet that opens at dawn and closes at dusk. Sometimes it gets slammed and many come at once but they don’t ever follow the rules with battles and chases breaking out like an unruly school cafeteria. I try to keep order but nobirdy listens. At the end of the day it’s all good. Everybirdy leaves full and happy for the night only to do it all again at dawn. I bet many of you can relate!🤣 Have a great Friday Hummer Charm!😎😎 Corpus Christi, Texas 9-4-26

💜HUMMINGBIRD VIDEO-of-the-day💜

Sunday 7:13 AM. After mostly Ruby Throated males the females finally came and then the Black Chinned male today. I do have hummingbirds everyday of the year. One visits the feeder about every 5 minutes mostly. I try and get other critters in the video at the same time. They’re on the move the last 2 weeks.
