The hummer activity at our feeders 3 miles east of Waldport went way up two 
weeks ago and has remained crazy since.  We have two quart-size feeders and are 
refilling both twice per day.

Yes indeed, activity has picked up here in Coos Bay also.  We have four feeders 
and I was filling them every week or so, except the two favorites which was 
maybe every 4 or 5 days (we have quite a few hummers around year-round).  
Anyhow, when i get home in the afternoon I have to fill 3 out of 4 of them 
everyday lately.  We haven't seen so many males in a while, the migration for 
them must be in full swing plus all the kids have fledged, busy times at the 
feeders.

Our hummingbird feeders were nearly dead during the month of May. Then 
four days ago or so, the activity at the feeder suddenly increased.  
Then yesterday all hell broke loose, and today the feeders are swarming 
with both SELASPHORUS and ANNA'S HUMMINGBIRDS.  There are even adult 
males of ALLEN'S and ANNA'S here.

This is north of Bandon, Coos Cty.


Where were they the last 4 weeks or so?
