I had a couple of dozen here and since a week ago am down to two. Those two may well stay and not go south.

We feed hundreds and go thru 3-4 gallons of juice per week after the young start flying peak summer. They started leaving after a cool night two weeks ago. Still quite a few around, plus we get quite a few travelers from north of us. They always have a little suitcase.
They are one of the happiest parts of summer and I miss them until they return. I am considering moving but do not want to abandon the squadron’s many generations built up over 32 years.
