The couple that bought our house in Gulf Coast Alabama has taken some great pictures of the hummingbirds at their bottlebrush. I am in NW Arkansas now and I have a feeder hung up. But being we got snow today and it is forecast to break the record cold temperature tonight I don't think I will see them for a while.

Only seen a couple (2-3) here. Have had feeders up for 2 weeks. I’m ready to a couple dozen using the feeders.

I planted several bottlebrush 3 years ago to see if they would help bring in hummingbirds.

3 weeks ago - no bottlebrush blooms - almost no hummingbirds.

Now - tons of bottlebrush blooms, plenty of hummingbirds.

Not really a surprise, but pretty cool to have it pay off.

Migration is peaking now, lots of cool stuff to see in addition to the hummingbirds. Scarlet Tanagers, Rose Breasted Grosbeaks, Summer Tanagers, Indigo Buntings, Blue Grosbeaks, LOTS of different Warblers.
