When we had our summer home in Maine we had a flowering ground cover (Dilanthus ??? Aka Baths?) and a couple of humming bird feeders. We ALWAYS had a lot of hummingbirds on the property. They would be lined up on the service wire coming into the house. They would buzz past our heads as we sat on the front porch to get to feed. Miss that here. Our feeders produced nary one humming bird. Changed the nectar mixture many times but no results. Finally gave up.
