My feeders have been out for almost a week and no takers yet.
Anybody seeing. Is it's right now in the NYC Metro area?
I WANT MY HUMMERS!

I'm convinced the hummers only come to my feeders when I'm not home. "Hey, Louie - she's driving out of the garage, it's time to go to the feeders" I keep the hummer feeders cleaned and filled starting the first week of April. So far, I haven't seen one, but somebody is drinking that sugar water.

I've had the same experience of no hummers. I was wondering if the liquid could evaporate from the feeders. I took them down, gave up. We have plenty of flowers. I try to plant for hummers, bees, etc.

I think it's a bit early for us in New England. They usually show up here sometime in May. I did see my first yellow finches though just the other day, a sure sign of warmer weather

I'm in your same general area of the country. I do not expect to see hummers until next week at the earliest, according to sources that map such things. Don't even have my feeders out yet- too cold.

Your way to early. I live in NE WV, and I put mine out 5th of May and I then I see hummers, they are put up by a Dogwood tree, and when it blooms they come, and it is just starting to open up. I keep my feeder cleaned every week, and don't put them in the sun. it sours the sugar water. I've been doing this for many years, and it works. Be Patient, they will come.

I am excited and waiting too.....I bought 2 new feeders this year...

None in North-Western Maryland yet. I put my feeder out this weekend. Just preparing for a possible early visitor. I wonder how the hummers with do with these darn Cicadas we're going to get.

I'm much farther south than you are and I just had my first hummingbirds show up last week.
I will say that they're about 10 days earlier than usual, so yours may be a bit early also when they do show up.

They're in my backyard. California.
