Anyone else have an unusually large number of hummingbirds this year?

Was watching hummer in a tree next to porch. Watched it go to it's nest. I have video of her feeding babies, but can not see how to share it.

That is amazing. We have never seen babies in a nest and have only seen nests after the season is over and storms blow them out of the trees. The nests are pretty small.

The nests are pretty small.

My wife found one years back at our first home. After a hail storm she never found it. I noticed a hummer up on a tree and it looked like it might be a nest, looking with binocular I found the nest. The picture was taken with a sony camera with 30X zoom on tripod.

Great pic. Wish you could find out how to post that video.

My activity has picked up again. It had tapered off when (I think) nesting started, but it is back up to 75% or so of peak. For me that is about 3/4 cup per day.

Yes, I would love to see the video as well.

I can send it facebook messenger, I have sent it. The upload file is too large for the server to process, is what is the problem. I am using a hotspot for internet and not enough I think. I tried to make it smaller but if I make it any smaller it would be too short. It is only 10 seconds, 20.5 MB.

Gone absolutely quiet here this past week. Fresh nectar and only a couple I have seen on two feeders. I know they are around... too many options?

I’ve not seen more than 2 so far this year, here in Georgia.

Orioles are outnumbering the hummingbirds so far this year.

Yahoo will take up to 20.0 MB's so maybe others are the same?
