Hello all=2C
=20
Just in case someone is trying to put together a picture of hummingbird=
movements from all these reports=2C here is my two cents' worth from my fe=
eders at Tremont=2C near the centre of the Annapolis Valley=2C at the base =
of the South Mountain. There appeared to be two families of Ruby-throateds=
using the feeders most of August=2C but the last adult male was seen on th=
e Sunday when Bill passed by NS (23 Aug). The following week at least one =
female and a few young were still present=2C and last seen 31 August. On 1=
Sept.=2C for the 1st time this summer when I was home=2C no hummingbitds w=
ere at the feeders. The next day (2nd)=2C one adult female was present=2C =
and today (3rd)=2C one or more immatures. My guess is that these September=
birds were migrants.
