Ted saw the photos of Dani’s hummingbird feeders, and sent in photos of his feeders. He points out that orioles and woodpeckers join the hummingbirds, in flying up to the bird snack bar.
Thanks, Ted! You take great photos!

Wow! I’ve never seen so many hooded orioles at one time.

They could also be Bullock’s and more common than you would think. You just have to stop, listen and watch. Mid-August is a great time to watch the feeders while the young are filling up and frolicking before their flight south. April (and my oriole-colored iris’) will signal their return. If you have palm trees, it’s a good idea to have the trimming done well before their return as the spent fronds are a favorite nesting site.
