Feeding Frenzies
Texas was the top state reporting hummers again this week, with even more reports than last week! After reporting a big decrease following a cool front a week ago, Diana in Angleton, TX had a new influx of hummingbirds: "Now there are so many I can't keep count!"

"I put out an additional 15 feeders yesterday and additional 4 today to give the Yankee hummers a break. I've got around 30 feeders in all...and they are still fighting!"

"With continuing southeast winds, hummer numbers have increased and are aptly quantified at the level of a 'whirling dervish.'" (video)
