WHEN WILL THE HUMMINGBIRDS MIGRATE?

| The hummer has George Wilkinson's full attention!
George Wilkinson visited the garden and brought his friend, Albert Davis, an experienced photographer. Albert brought a great camera .....perfect for long distance subjects. Albert never dreamed that he would be so close to the hummingbirds.

Hummers begin migrating in July and usually taper off by October. The Ruby-throated hummingbird increase their body mass to prepare for the long 500-mile journey (nonstop flight) across the Gulf of Mexico. A few stragglers will linger so it is important to leave a few feeders through the winter for them.
"Come back to see us next year!"
