They quit showing up to the feeders about 3-4 weeks ago here in west central Louisiana. You may have a few stragglers that cant make the trip and they will feed as long as you leave food out for them.

Yes, you should leave it out. There are not nearly as many hummingbirds in the winter but some can show up and are species that are rare in the summer. The gulf coast is one of the best places in the US for this and Baton Rouge has become a bit of a winter hummingbird magnet. You may or may not get any but it's worth a try.

They need to be going south - across the Gulf of Mexico now. To their winter home. Actually they should have gone a few weeks back. If you put food out, they will stay around for the easy eats and then freeze to death when cold weather comes. The best thing is to stop feeding them and force them to leave.

They will be back as soon as the weather begins to warm up in the spring.
