I put my feeder out two weeks ago and still haven't seen any!!  It has been cold and raining all week here in New Jersey, so I hope they come soon....  😔😞

Whohoo!!  Just spotted my first of the year on my feeder.  A male.  Made my day!  I'm in north central Ohio right on the lake.

I am so lucky because those little guys stick around my place all year (CA). I did want to share a wonderful fountain/birdbath that a poster turned me on to last year and the hummers LOVE IT! From Kmart and worth every penny...the red attracts them and I added a feeder close by. They are there from morning to night. Thank YOU to the poster who first showed this fountain!

I put our feeder out 10 days ago, saw one 2 days later, none since. We've had lousy weather here in NC, maybe that's the reason. I'll give it another few days and if I don't see any, I'll take it down, wash it out and refill with more solution.

Saw my first one 2 days ago and it is a male.  He has been coming regularly.  It takes about a week later for the females to arrive.  I am in New Hampshire!  Weather has been cold and rainy.

Just put two feeders out this afternoon.  Hope to see hummers soon.  We finally had some sun today.
