I had not refilled our hummingbird feeders in awhile, so they had been empty for about two weeks.

I went back in the house – after refilling our three feeders – to clean up the syrup container and was surprised to see a hummingbird at one of the feeders. It was less than five minutes.

It was at a feeder in the dogwood tree, so I couldn’t get a great picture. It looks like a young female.

Was she watching me? Did she smell it?
