Utah Bob #35998 Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 I have a camo cap with a big red Goex Bp patch on the front. I am frequently buzzed by hummers in the summer. Makes me jump every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah Bob #35998 Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 They do like those bright colors. This feller got in the laundry room. He latched on to the fly swatter and I took him outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Riot Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 We love hummingbirds. My wife and I put out feeders and she plants flowers for them. I had a hummingbird take interest in a colorful hat I was wearing a few years ago when I was trimming a tree. Startled me pretty good. At least until I figured out what the weird buzzing noise was.

Clay Mosby Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Back many years ago when we had our Goldwing, we had a stuffed Marvin the Martian mascot that rode on the back. One time near Alpine Lake in the Sierras, while stopped at the lake, we watched a hummer try to feed on the yellow brush on top of Marvin's helmet. Persistent bugger was there for a couple of minutes before finally giving up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoken D Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 I have a group upon their winter return to the area they find and chase me informing that it's time to put the feeder back out. Happens every spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Love watching the little critters. Had one at the house we named George. George was a wonder. When ever the feeder would get low, he would hover just outside the sliding door to let me know. After I refilled it, he would fly away other humming bird things until it was time for a refill. Stayed all winter. I had to bring the feeder in at night in the winter time, to keep it from freezing, but we managed. Got one here at the apartment, but he is not near as sociable as George.

Sixgun Sheridan Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 I have two large feeders outside. I go through two cups of liquid a day! By the evening there are literally close to 20 of them fighting for a spot at the feeders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
