My first Hummer

I saw my first Ruby Throat Hummingbird of the year at my house this morning!  I am really looking forward to getting them to my house.  I am still working on getting some butterfly plants and other hummer friendly flowering plants to keep them around.  I bought a second feeder to start with ( thought I bought a third but it was a fancy seed feeder) and it seems that the raccoons have taken that one from the eve of the roof!  Maybe I am blaming them for too much but the feeder was unscrewed from its hanger and on the ground.  I will find a new location for it, but this one was in front of the window so I could see it from inside!

For those of you who are successful with hummingbirds in your yard, would you mind letting me know which flowers really work the best ?

Thanks,

Dave
