Zoe, I live just north of you over the MO border, and I was just this
morning mentioning to my husband that we don't seem to have many
hummingbirds this year. We didn't get those storms, so all our vegetation
is intact. We had one appear very early this year, just before that late
hard freeze. Maybe some of the birds didn't survive that? Who knows? Maybe
the the winds were favorable and they headed further north this year. Let's
hope that.
