Have had our feeder out since April and nothing. BS Gal had a thread in April that she had some.

Where are they? :shrug:

They show up, sparsely, in April/May then go off to mate. They'll be back mid-June or so.

There were a few here, then, as Catt said, they went away to mate. I have seen one in the past week, but he hasn't been frequenting the feeder a lot.

Yep, there are a few but not nearly as many as I will have in a few weeks.

Good to know. I saw one a few weeks ago but nothing now. I even made a great hummingbird oasis and have been so dissapointed that there haven't been any around.

To my untrained eye I started out with three of them for a good two weeks and now I'm only seeing one. I thought they were here to mate so it's nice to know they probably went off to do the deed and will probably be back later.

They better be back after their mating fun...we have a lot of flowers planted this year for their pleasure....and ours for watching them!

The fool things could have 10 feeders and the three would still fight over them!

I have one that comes every morning around 5:30 and since I'm gone the rest of the day I don't know if I get many more.
