We've had hummingbird feeders off and on over the years and never had
much luck.
Given our proximity to Northgate, I figured it was hopeless.
But in the last week, we've had 3 different Rufous hummers hitting
the fuschias and trumpet vine on the front porch.

Someone told us Trumpet vine was too big a flower for our local small
hummers.
But we've got a few who seem to find the big flowers worth the effort.

Meanwhile, bc Chickadees are back in numbers and starting to peck at the
the still green sunflowers.
