The majority of the orioles have left but the sugar water still is disappearing rapidly as hummingbirds are taking their place at the feeders. Ruby-throated Hummingbirds are eastern North America’s only breeding hummingbird. But since the males aren’t chasing others away as the males began their migration in early August (since he only pairs up for courting and mating, then off on his own having fun and not raising the kids), more can eat from the feeders at the same time so hard to keep them filled.
Hungry Hummers
Thanks for the beautiful picture and video. Sure hate to see these little beauties leave for the winter.
Wow, those hummers really love your feeders.
