A comment from Friend of SLD, Harry Schmeider, who writes a great blog on all things Bluebirds called Ambassador for the Bluebirds, reminded me of an article that another friend of SLD forwarded to us a few weeks ago.  Harry posted a comment on the hummingbird video post about relieving stress by smelling like dirt and [...]

They’re baaackkkk!

Spring is here so the hummers can’t be far behind. This video shows some easy steps you can take to make sure the ruby throated hummingbirds choose your backyard as the place to raise their families.

Carol, I've spent the morning (!!) watching your wonderful videos. My husband and I have quite a backyard haven for birds and dogs, so your tips on bluebirds, the mister, etc., have been fun to see. I'll be checking in to see others on your site. Thanks for your conservation focus.
