Feeding Frenzy

Yesterday the hummingbird feeder on the front deck got a real workout.  Usually I see one or two hummers coming in for a sip and taking turns at the feeder.  Yesterday there were five of the little guys doing their aerial acrobatics all around the feeder.  What fun!

I'm guessing they were Ruby-throats migrating south.  Unfortunately I was running late for work and the birds were in silhouette so I didn't get a chance to identify them.  My usual guests are Black-chins and just a couple of Ruby-throats.

Anyone else seeing an increase of feeding frenzy?
