As of today, I have 5 hummingbirds, One female Broad-tailed, 3 immature Broad-tailed, One adult male Broad-tailed.
Since our unusual hard freeze and temperature drop, all the birds were having a very difficult time. I did all I could do, to change out hummingbird feeders, every two hours, to provide room temperature nectar, and get them through 4 days of frigid cold temps! In a 24 hours, our temps went from 89 degrees, to 20 degrees! I protected my hummingbird flowers with "Frost Protek" covers, and brought all my potted plants into garage and covered them as well. The hummingbirds were happy to have flowers to feed on.
