Have your Hummingbird feeders ready with fresh nectar when they get here!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Hummzinger Highview Hummingbird nectar feeder<\/a> is one of our all-time favorites! But there are so many more we like, too. See more nectar feeders we recommend here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Greet these amazing birds after their exhausting journey, with Hummingbird feeders filled and waiting. Need help? Stop by the store for feeders and our best (always free!) advice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Even though many of us won’t have regular visitors until flowers bloom in May, these first migrants coming through really need to bulk up after their long migration. Not many flowers yet, so we need to help!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Please report the date and location of first sightings on our Facebook page. Who will see them FIRST??!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n See The Backyard Naturalist’s Facebook page for details and results (great photos from previous walks).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hummingbird Migration 2026 Update!
