The hummingbirds were gone for about 2 weeks, but that's a lot better than 5 or 6 months like it's supposed to be in Seattle ;) And now they're back, I am seeing more of a variety and it makes me smile =) This little guy has awesome coloring and because it's a hummingbird, it automatically qualifies for being VERY cute (only to me? hehe). It definitely is looking very happy - LoL
And this woodpecker visits almost every day - loves the suet (of course so do the squirrels!), however, it will NOT let me take its picture, it flies away =( So here it is in our yard high, high up in the maple tree:
The doves are also back, loving the wild bird feeder (3 of them trying to sit on the feeder at the same time doesn't work so well as they are large birds! But they still attempt it) as well as the pilated woodpecker - he only visits about once a week though.
