Still seeing migrators — keep your feeders up!
This is the latest I’ve ever had them visiting, just a reminder to all to keep your feeders clean and available for our fashionably late friends! I’m in Colorado. Anyone further north still getting regular visitors?

Rare leucistic Ruby Throated Hummingbird has been visiting my feeder for the last few days.

The only thing that makes me seriously consider ending my hummingbird feeder efforts… is the gd paper bags that sugar comes in…
Edit: REALLY GOOD TIPS IN THE THREAD THANKS ALL!
I know paper bags are better for the environment and I know the sugar industry is a low margin business but, every SINGLE TIME I unload a bag… just opening the bag dumps sugar ALL over my table. It’s a freaking sugar bomb waiting to explode on my table and I have no way to diffuse it.
Thanks for reading my rant.

Mr. Hummy
My mom crocheted this hummingbird for my niece and she named him Mr. Hummy. He came from a kit and she made a flower from the leftover yarn and a pair of chopsticks.

Chubby Hummingbird
We are in the foothills of the Blue Ridge in Virginia. For about four months of the year, we have the blessing of 12+ dozen hummingbirds visiting our feeders daily. Two of our regulars are still feeding, with migrants visiting every few days. One of our regulars is VERY chubby. I've never seen a chubby hummingbird in all my years of feeding. Anyone else?

2026 Summer Hummer
Caught this hummer blinking its eyes while approaching the feeder for a sip.

An old favorite
It's not the most technically perfect photo, but I love the way she's wrapped in her own wing blur and you can imagine the motion of her lower body.

SE MN still stopping by
Still stopping by on the way south. Great to see. I hadn't had any for a few days and almost took it down but glad it's still getting used as they migrate!
