I live 130 miles above the CA./OR. border. Today is Dec. 13, 2008. I have a small window feeder so that I may enjoy my visitors while doing kitchen duties. I filled the feeder again, on the 10th. To date I assume they still "visit". Tonight an ugly storm out of Alaska slammed us w/ freezing temp. and so far two in. snow. We expect lows in the 20's for a week. So...Do I take down nectar or leave it out year round? Will it freeze? Will their tongue get stuck like a kid sticking his tongue on a frozen pole? And..Will you please tell me how it is that our little friends don't freeze to death when they are sleeping at night? I worry 'bout them.
