[va-bird] Ruby-throated Hummingbirds

We are now down from 4 to just one very FAT female Ruby-throated Hummingbird at 
our home in Stuarts Draft today - Oct. 1.   Our "Birds of August County"1998 
and update through 2000, by YuLee Larner gives a late date of October 21, 1996. 
 Although we have four nectar feeders up, "our" hummer prefers the remaining 
flowers to feed from - impatiens and penstimon.

I am wondering if these hurricanes coming north with rains will keep the 
hummers here longer this year?   Can these little birds sense these kinds of 
storm systems from this far north?   

Jean Brodwater, Stuarts Draft, Va.
