Where have my male hummers gone

July 1 2009 at 7:19 AM		cottagelover  (Login cottagelover)
In the spring, I had 4 pairs of hummers. Now, I seem to have a couple of females only. No males at all.
Why do they leave? I use and clean my 2 feeders, and have flowers that attract them to the cottage which is in Ontario, near Hunstville.
We had lots until 2 years ago when the spring was very cold and wet. Now, they just don't stay.
Why is that?

Hi Cottagelover and welcome. [linked image]

As Bob said the best place to ask is on the hummer forum. The females are still nesting here in S.W. lower Michigan. I'm sure your action will pick up [linked image]
