Interesting - the term "hummer". It is used to describe something so tiny and fragile, and also something so huge and monstrous. When I Googled under Images for "hummer", the first 20 images were ALL of the SUV. The second one was a real monstrosity - a Hummer limousine. I kept going from set of 20 pages to set of 20 pages, trying to find a bird hummer; after 100 pictures, 95 were of the SUV and 5 of some cell phone type gizmo. Finally, I found a hummingbird at Image 349. That's right, these birds rate 349th when you Google for "hummer". The image I got was of a praying mantis eating a hummingbird.

I don't think we get traveling birds at the hummingbird feeders since the feeders are hung under the eaves of the house and would not be visible from flight. The hummers we have every year come because of their memory of where "their" feeders are. I guess next April we should try some more visible feeders to entice more hummers.
