A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion Hobbies, Crafts and Creativity The Bird Lovers Forum Hummers Swarming...

I have six feeders up, the hummers seem to think there's only 2. I'm filling these 2 everyday. At times there's at least a dozen birds or more between the 2 feeders, the other 4 feeders normally have 2-4 fighting over them.

The hummers are migrating from the north and will be here until the end of Oct/mid Nov depends on how cold it gets at that time. Then I take feeders all down for cleaning and storing, but 1 is left up for the late stragglers.

The pics are not the best...so hard to get good pics.

excellent pictures. I live up north here. A few weeks ago I had swarms of hummers at my feeders too, I was filling my 2 feeders once a day. But now the bees have moved back in, and th at has chased off most of the birds. I have just a few hummingbirds around now. My Hummers are usually here until around October 1.

Have the Hummers left zone 5?
