When do I put out my hummingbird feeder?

Are you waiting anxiously for the hummingbirds now that the weather looks like it might be getting warmer?

The most frequently asked question this month has been when to put out the hummingbird feeders?

In mid-Michigan you have to pay your taxes and put out your hummingbird feeders by April 15th. You can track the migration of the Ruby throated hummingbird on http://www.hummingbirds.net/.

The hummingbirds we see in April probably won’t stick around but continue on to nest in the Upper Peninsula or Canada. The hummingbirds that choose to nest in our area (the regulars) usually arrive by Mothers Day, the second Sunday in May.
