    They're swarming at my house - filling up my feeders every 6 - 8 hours.

    I heard my neighbor talking loudly the other day telling her boyfriend she saw one. I haven’t seen any yet.

    My wife saw one the other day. We had some flowers they would feed on but we never actually put out a feeder until this year. My neighbor died last summer and she always had out a feeder. We put out a feeder in memory of a lost friend. I've been told they return to the same spot every year and in the past there was always 4-5 around our house as well as our neighbors so hopefully they do return.

    Put my feeder out a couple of days ago. I think I saw one day before yesterday, but haven't seen any since. Might have been mistaken, but the food is there.

    I keep records of when the migratory birds show up at my feeders. My first hummer is normally around April 7-11th. This year they were right on time April 8th. Seems like all the migratory birds (orioles, indigo bunting, blue grosbeak, rose breasted grosbeak) were all on time this year at my feeders.. Last year they were a few weeks late due to a cold spring but we've had more normal temps and weather this spring other than more rain than normal.
