Yesterday, I noticed something stuck to the side of the hummingbird feeder and when I checked I found a different kind of hummingbird. There were two of the fluttering all around and stopping to eat and just checking things out. We have lots of wildflowers. I had a red hat on and they even came and lit on it to check it out. A new type of hummingbird? ( photo / image / picture from dooley's Garden ) butterfly on hummingbird feeder ( photo / image / picture from dooley's Garden ) dooley
So cute, and why would you think that butterfly was not entitled to some of that sweet nectar? He thought you put it there for him. Barb in Pa.
So far butterflies, bees and wasps are all that have fed at my hummingbird feeders....bees can empty one in no time at all!!!
