If that’s the case, I may fill up a feeder one more time!

Last bird was yesterday. She didn’t show up this morning. Costal Mississippi.

Prior to leaving for a two week trip I filled up four feeders. They were all empty when I got back a week ago. I have only seen a few passing hummers since I have been back. I took all of the feeders down yesterday.

We still have a few hanging around as well. I saw one chasing another one away from the feeders about an hour ago.

I'm in Denham Springs La and was commenting to my wife earlier that I didn't see the hummers today. Watched for them for about an hour on my back patio and they didn't show. "Mine" have moved on.

Been seeing a few the past couple of days here in BR. Refilled feeders yesterday and they're getting plenty action. I bet they'll all be gone once that front pushes through this week.

We still have at least 2 hanging around. I told my wife to wait on the cold front to take the feeders down.

First Rufous of the year showed up this morning. Will keep nectar fresh until it leaves.

I live in north central Ark. and the two I had around the house for the summer have been gone for a week or so. I haven't seen any migrators come through like I did last year.
