DESTRUCTIVE HUMMERS

I usually try to feed the hummingbirds every spring.  This year we were at the cabin early and I put out the bright red sugar water for them.  It's hard to keep the feeders full when we aren't there full time.  I did buy a 2nd, larger feeder thinking it would keep them feed.  About a month ago while we were there, I kept hearing this really loud pecking noise.  We thought maybe it was a woodpecker, but we didn't ever see it.  Later that day we were on the lower back deck looking at the steps that handyman had been building and I looked up at our red, white & blue party lights.  This is what we saw:


Note only did they like the red ones... 


They liked the blue ones.....

 And the clear ones!


For now, the lights are still hanging, but I'm not sure if they will last long with the big holes in almost all of them.
