About in a week, our males head out then 2 week later the females leave. 2 feeders right on the porch where we sit. They are something to see up close.

Been so many and so active at my house all spring and summer. Going to miss them this winter.

Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.

I have noticed that our feeder visitations have slowed down considerably in the last week or so. I didnt think our birds left this soon.

The males have left here, but the females and young are still around and hungry. Had to put out a second feeder, they empty one in a day now.

The last few years I've had a dozen or more show up several times a day all summer long. This year I've seen one, might be more that I haven't seen. Same feeders same everything. Every week or 10 days I replace the the feeders with new Electro-Nectar (Store bought). Any idea what's going on?
