    Hi Sue, They come up from the South and there are quite a few different ones, but this is the only type we have seen - we've had them on our Valerian as it's their favourite flower - but spotting them is tricky as they move so fast ! I gather in a mild winter they can survive on Scilly. Sue M

    We have the hummingbirds here, they come in May and are gone by the first of September, we like watching them around the feeders...Sue K
