The hummingbird feeder and the Texas firebush

 

 

We had this dwarf firebush.  It’s a hummingbird attractor.  We thought “Hey. Let’s hang the hummingbird feeder right over the hummingbird attractor and make it easy for them.”  So we stuck a big shepherd’s hook in the ground and hung a feeder from it.

 

Well, we can’t convince the dwarf firebush that it’s a dwarf.  We gave up trimming it down to keep it below the hummingbird feeder.  Now we just keep it trimmed back around the feeder so the birds can still find it.
