Sorry no pictures but they're here in KC early. The feeders are out.

You'll be entertained by them soon I'm sure. They get pretty aggressive with each other around the feeders all summer. It's fun watching them zipping around us.
So far we've got one male hanging around a bunch.
Enjoy!

First one at my feeder this afternoon. Looked like a female (I think) ruby throated. I live in Crystal Lake, IL, which is a far NW suburb of Chicago, about 20 miles south of the cheddar curtain of Wisconsin. Love them. They stay all summer.
I should add that there have been a number of Orioles at the feeder for the last week. They never stay all summer though. Too bad. I put out some halves of oranges in the suet feeder for them, but they don't pay any attention to them.
