Hummingbird Special

Thanks so much to Nanci Adler who snapped this gorgeous and hard-to-get photo of a lovely little female hummingbird visiting the Moon Feeder on our porch!  The tiny birds are on a feeding frenzy right now before they fly South to avoid the coming cool weather.  Nights are now in the 40s and it hasn't been raining nearly as much as the forecast says, so check the special (below) and come on up!!

The hand-blown glass and copper feeder shown above is for sale in our gift shop along with other variations of Parasol's recycled hand-blown "Mini-Blossom" glass feeders which can hang from a beautiful curved hook or rest on a stake put directly into the ground or into a flower pot.

Stay with us soon for a last look at our little friends zooming from feeder to feeder and take advantage of this Last Minute Hummingbird Special:

August & September are the best months for viewing hummingbirds in Highlands!  The babies are hatching and there are families of the cute little creatures buzzing all over the porch where we have added seven new feeders to see if that would attract more hummers.  Well, it did and they also buzz red hats, shirts, or lipstick! They'll be with us until mid-September or beyond when they begin their fantastic journey south. This great photo was taken last year by one of our guests.

Our feeders, like the one above, are from PARASOL and are made from recycled glass.  They come in many designs and beautiful colors.  This one is called "Camelot."  We have a few of these (and a couple of other designs) to sell, but we don't ship.  You'll have to come to the Inn to make a purchase. The best idea is to be our guest and spend some "porch time" where you can see them in action!

Buzz on up to Highlands and say goodbye to our little friends!
