Hummingbird, Nectaring from Flowers
Sightings report image

Date: 09/12/2016

Number: 6

A half dozen or so (definitely 4 at once, and other sightings of two to three on the far side of the house, with wild chases over the roof) ruby-throated hummingbirds, all female or juvenile. I saw them nectaring a lot on tithonia and salvia (a red variety planted in windowboxes because there are people around here who let their cats run loose). They also visited tropical milkweed and lantana, and I think they stopped on Lathyrus tingitanus. They were on the feeders quite a bit, too.
