I , too, had the pleasure of a Siskin flock at my feeders today, the first time in many years, on Avon Mountain. But I have a concern about leaving hummingbird feeders up beyond November 1. Isn't it conceivable that this practice will encourage the bird to stay too late for migration and it will die?
