A pair of Broadwings returned to our backyard yesterday. The male was first seen overwintering throughout 2011-2012. They were here all that Summer until around August. The nest was badly damaged by Irene and it looked like they were permanently gone. Yesterday morning I saw one then quickly the other as they mated during a 15 minute time period. Again this morning and tonight. The nest is already improved.
