Since about 2 days ago, we=92ve not seen =91our' 3 hummingbirds (2F, 1M) at=
 all.  Previously, they had been visiting our feeders fairly regularly, may=
be every few 10s of minutes.  I presume they have now moved on, migrating.
Are others observing this, that is, is this the expected/normally observed =
time of departure south for hummingbirds?

 warbler, but I could not get any features.
