The hummingbirds are filling up on nectar and bugs and all the good stuff a hummer can get. They are getting ready for the migration from the north to the south. These tiny birds have got to put on some weight to make the journey south before the frost is on the ground.
I hate to see them go, they have been such great subjects to photograph and soon they will be gone for several months. I hope they remember me and my deck next season.

So Sad to see them go. Hummingbirds hovering over flowers is truly beafutifu.
Yes, Rose it will be sad, they sure a fun to watch as they flitter all around the flowers.
where do they hibernate during the winter? so if there are humming birts that reside in say, washington, they will fly all the way down to mexico for the winter?
I am most familar with the Ruby throats in the eastern US. They fly south for the winter. I don't know much about the western hummers. Maybe someone else could help us out here.
