Well, that figures. I've had my feeder out for a month, just in case they
showed up early. The salmon berries have been blooming for almost two
weeks, so they're due. Today my sister calls from Yelm to say that she saw
her first hummer yesterday too, and we're all blah blah blah about the
coincidence and what it might mean. And now someone from about 5 miles away
says he's had 'em for two weeks. So Peter, what have you been putting in
*your* feeders, huh?
