One in photo is sitting on barbed wire swing yesterday afternoon. He was one of first of many juveniles here today.

If your wondering, your rubythroats that you all hosted are doing great coming in. They look real plump and mostly young 4 to 5 months in ages. Young males with full red throats are still coming in all day going to feeders.
They are aware that sugar water feeders are a little warmer than usual. So sip just a bit at a time. Stay up in trees cooling down.

I honestly have never seen so many juveniles in quite a while or in over 5 years in this abundance. You hosters did great for nesters this year.

They sure look good, and glad the heat isn't stressing them, bc I see no panting beak open trouble.

We will have to duck in afternoon I'm sure, if outside this evening.
