RT Hummers (where are all the adult males??)
Of course there are probably still some around, but generally, the males
leave before the females. I had 1 adult and three juvenile males in my yard
this August, but I have not seen any of them for at least a week now,
which is very normal timing here. I also have not seen a female for a day or 2
now, and the 10th of September is often the late date for me. I have,
however, had females appear in mid-October and stay as late as October 20th.
Generally they go for my flowers that are still in bloom and ignore the
feeders I put out for them.
