A few years ago, when we first moved to our north Florida home a hummingbird was a rare sight, even though we had a feeder hanging (always with fresh food) near our house. But that all changed after we planted honeysuckle -- Lonicera sempervirens and a gold "John Clayton" variety -- in our yard. Now we have, I kid you not, an uncountable number of little hummers jockeying for position at our feeders. We have so many in fact we had to recently add a second feeder, and we're already thinking about adding a third to handle the overflow! So to any of you who enjoy watching these magnificant little birds, I say
*first* plant some flowers in your yard that will attract them, *then* hanger a feeder.
