I'm definitely not a twitcher but I am a very casual birder, meaning I only seek to ID the birds around my house. This summer I put up three hummingbird feeders and now I have many fighting over what they don't know is an inexhaustible supply of nectar (sugar water). There's even enough for the woodpeckers. I have one feeder just outside the garage door and I get a lot of enjoyment watching them from my workbench. I also feed and water the birds, mammals, lizards, and anything else that wants a drink or a bite to eat. Any serious (or not so serious) birders on BAUT?
