I enjoyed this!! I had a winter hummingbird in winter '93 and '94. It came in November and was hunting through my frost-killed flowers for food. I put the feeder back up and kept it happy until February. Then the massive ice storm hit. It disappeared for a few days during the storm but food was kept out for it, hoping it had not frozen. It came back and stayed until March.. Awesome experience!
Love it! I'm in SO Cal and have Anna's, Allen's and Costa's all year round. Currently, about 15 to 20 individuals. I do get Black-chinned in Summer when the temps are above 100. I haven't noticed Rufous yet...but I have my eyes out for them. I know they were in the area according to reports but it took me to Arizona to photograph my first Rufous. Love love the video! Keep it up please!
Thank you so much @anthonylujan! I let the video production slide in 2023, but comments like yours really help to inspire me to do more. Happy New Year!
"Winter Hummingbirds" . . . subject grabbed my attention. The last of my Ruby-throats here in central Upper Michigan vacate about a week into September even though I leave a feeder out until the end of the month. Exceedingly interesting, educational and entertaining video!
Congratulations Graham!! This video is superbly produced! Visual identification& great detail explaination easily understandable information !!! Thank you for your amazing production. I had a Blackchinned in 2015 in Kentucy. So exciting I became very focused on sharing & volunteering...Yes, I was very very lucky
Excellent! Congrats on that Black-chinned! I've never attracted a winter hummer, but there were two Rufous Hummingbirds each within a 2 mile radius of my house last winter. Some day I'll get one!
Excellent video! I love hummingbirds but don't know much about them...thanks for the valuable information. I have 3 resident hummingbirds and I wish I could have more.
Thanks! Yeah, I leave a feeder up every winter, and so far nothing, but you never know. Last winter there were two Rufus hummingbirds coming to feeders within about a 2 mile radius from my house.
This is really an incredible video! Not only is the filming beautiful but the images clearly show the field markings and behaviors of each species Graham describes. I also liked the pace of his dialog - it was slow enough for me to absorb what he was saying. Instructional and entertaining! I learned a lot!!!
Excellent video, I can only imagine what it would have been with the images you lost. I really appreciate the details you give in this video as well as when you answer questions on fb pages. Many will tell what the species is, but you always take the time to explain the field marks to look for.
Great video. Lots of information. Looking forward to seeing (hopefully) a winter hummer. Thank you from a new member of the TN birding community.

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Are your residents Ruby-throated Hummingbirds?
@@NashvilleBirderone of them has red feathers on the neck. I only use my cellphone camera so I don't have good capture.
Excellent video. I’m leaving a feeder up this year, just outside the living room window so I can keep an eye on it.

Thanks! Yeah, I had some pretty nice footage of Allen's hummingbirds that I lost, but so it goes. I appreciate the kind words.
