Visits
- 2026-05-04: We grabbed a ride-share, and drove about an hour to a farm where they are feeding the hummingbirds. Not a huge fan of the feeding, but this was the place to find the Bearded Mountaineer. The hummingbird was not coming, and we waited quite a long time. It was about time to give up when the mountaineer made a brief appearance.
