For some reason none of my messages to naturens have not been posted  
to the list since and including last Wednesday, re space station- 
shuttle passes   and   hummingbirds.  I'll give it one more try  
before I check more closely for a reason. (????)  The message that  
follows was originally sent yesterday; sent the same to BNS list and  
it posted. (???)

*************************************
My two remaining Hummingbirds left September 8th.   They were around  
for a short while that morning. I observed them taking a couple of  
turns at the feeder.  That was normal enough. By noon there was no  
activity around the feeder. Normally at lunchtime I would hear their  
chatterings, hums and buzzes as they played their chasing games in  
the vicinity of the feeder, but all was silent.  Same at suppertime.

During all this nice weather, I've been having meals out on the deck  
where I can hear and watch the activity.  By now I was highly  
suspicious that they had gone.  I took special notice on the 9th; no  
activity and the fluid levels had not changed.  Apparently they had  
indeed departed for warmer grounds;  I was MISSING them!

Sharing this story with friends at Lake George yesterday, they  
reported that their hummingbirds had not been seen since Tuesday  
(that, too, would be Sept 8th).
