Males Are Gone Now
We haven't seen any male hummers at our feeder in over a week now. Lots of females, though, still come repeatedly each day. The males have evidently begun their migration south. They are always the first to arrive at our feeder in the spring and the first to leave in the fall. We have so much female activity at the feeder now we suspect that in addition to our "locals" we are likely also hosting migrating females coming through from points north on their way south to Mexico and Central America for the winter. Won't be long before they leave too.
