Anna's at Heated Hummingbird Feeder!
We have been feeding over 30 Anna's Hummingbirds this Winter. We have seven heated feeders, as some of the feeders they share, and others only one controls. We had 23 degree weather, snow, and 55 mph gusts of wind. To keep up with the windchill we have 15 watt bulbs, handwarmers and socks to shield the nectar from freezing. My husband put brackets below the feeders so we can zip tie the feeders to help eliminate some of the swinging motion. As many of you know, our Anna's Hummingbirds do not migrate during the Winter months. Photo taken in our backyard in Camas, Washington.
