Another hummer has just hovered outside my sewing room window just like she's trying to see what's going on inside. They do this regularly. Anybody else see them doing this?

Glad to see that some of "our" guys are arriving at your windows. We've been feeding them all summer, so now it's your turn!

I saw a female early last Tuesday morning, that's the last one I saw. I still have my feeders up in case there are stragglers but it's getting cold now so I hope all of them are already headed south.

I have reflective solar film on one pair of west facing patio doors, so it looks like a mirror outside.

The hummers are always hovering up to it and checking out their reflection...they must think it's another hummer after their food supply!

I had one female 3 yrs. in a row that would come hoover in the window when the feeder got empty. She had a funny tail w/more white than the rest & a different pattern to the coloring so we knew it was the same one.
Since I sit outside a lot, they have been coming & hooving in front of me...checking me out.

And I've had an influx...counted 8 night before last. Last night I wasn't out there for their normal feeding time before dark. Saw 4 at once later this morning.

Sadly, no more hummers here, saw the last one last week. They do hover in the window if the feeder needs to be refilled!


Judge not, you don't know their story.
