Hummer House, Christoval 
We are at The Hummer House and staying in one of their cottages and loving it!  
We came last year too and
had to schedule a year in advance to get a date inbetween Spring and Fall 
Migration that worked with our 
schedule, but I noticed that they have open dates.

We go out before sunup to enjoy the cool temp in the morning and are 
comfortable until 1 pm.  We then go
back out in the evenings.  I'm actually cold in the morning!  Anyway, the stars 
are the amazing birds they have
and I think Painted Buntings are in close competition to all the hummers.

Make sure you check out Stockpen Crossing in Menard for more amazing birds.  We 
had a Mississippi Kite
on our way here and there is also a famous cafe named after a grass.  Menard is 
30 min North of Junction
