Same here in Moretown
We often have a large number of hummers stay with us for the summer, and this morning they are all working very hard to stay energized.
I counted 12 at one time in the front yard.  They are all hiding in a lilac bush next to the feeders, and coming out to get a drink and dispute territory.  And, there is a second group in the back yard!
Entertaining, but I really feel for them on this cold, wet day.
