Spring Birder Notes from Minnewashta way.

Birder Gary has been taking notes on the advance of Spring. Like the Norad "Santa tracker", Gary is a Hummingbird tracker. The Ruby Throated Hummingbirds have been making their advance from the South and Gary is ready with a hummingbird birdfeeders stocked with nectar. Gary recommends this site for others to monitor the little fellows:
