Well, my hummingbirds did not return this year. We have had them return for the last five years. I am told it is because of these very noisy bugs (Cicada's) that invaded there territory. The noise was deafening.

Here's a close up of one these little buggers.

Our blooming trees were invaded. If you walked under them you could not hear the person beside you speaking.

This is our privacy fence where several of the little critters left their shells. Not a great picture, but think you get the point. Boy! I miss my hummers :(
