Description
🐦 The six-week plan that takes an empty yard to a full one — what to buy, where to hang it, and what to expect each week. Plus four pages you can print and take to the store.
📘 FORTY YEARS AT THE WINDOW — https://wendellswindow.com
A hummingbird hanging upside down at dawn may look dead—but I’ll show you why it needs a little time and sunlight before you worry. In this video, I explore the hidden nightly survival routine that lets these tiny birds conserve energy, endure the cold, and wake before first light.
I’ll take you from the crucial last drink of the evening through the hummingbird’s remarkable overnight shutdown and morning recovery. Stay to the end for the morning I found one hanging from my feeder—and what I watched it do next.
Subscribe if you want more of what this window has taught me, and tell me your state and what time your first hummingbird arrives in the morning. I read every comment.
