First Hummingbird of the Season

Marlys thought she heard one last Friday, so she put out a feeder. Today we were sitting outside in the 70 degree weather and a male Broad-tail (scarlet neck) showed up. Usually she doesn't put out the feeders until May and then it takes a few days for the hummers to show up.

And to think that next Sunday we are going up to St. Mary's Glacier for crampon and self-arrest practice. The seasons can get confusing this time of year.
