Today we have had a much larger number of hummingbirds than we have had since spring. Normally, for this year, there are 7, 8 or even more but late this afternoon when the rain stopped we have had males, females and juveniles all buzzing about. Even counting the fledglings there are more birds than I would expect. Something is going to happen and very soon. I would expect the males to begin leaving shortly. Anyone noticing this? Right now it appears that individual males are trying to hold feeders for their females and the young. I wonder if they will leave enmasse? They certainly are going through a lot of food, but the flowers aren't producing food for the, I watch them go flower to flower and they are searching quite desperately by times. I wonder if the mix 4-1 should be increased slightly? Any thoughts.? Best regards, Marg Millard.ca
