I set out feeders 2 weeks ago. One is by the kitchen window. But I never saw any. I feared that they weren't returning to my yard this year.
But I heard a hummer-chirp in the yard a couple days ago. And then I saw a male flitting around. And if there is a male around, there must be a female. And yesterday, I saw both at the feeder near the window. YAY!
Mine are Ruby-Throated. Not my own picture, but it was very like this...

I was SO glad to see both. There is probably a nest in the backyard spruce tree. They like that tree. I have found nests there after they are unused by late Summer before. I won't disturb them.
