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.

Commonly believed myth that is not true at all. Baton Rouge alone has dozens of hummingbirds that spend the entire winter and do just fine.
