We've had some very violent storms through the Manhattan are in the last 5-7 days. Our last hummingbird sighting was before all that.
Now, it's possible those storms gave lingering migrants good incentive to move out. But, in a typical summer we have a number of breeders in our garden all summer, with peak numbers just as fall migration begins.
Without yet knowing when birds will reappear here at our flowers and feeders, I'm wondering if the weather actually killed some of the locals.
Is anyone else around this area, or anywhere the weather has been turbulent, seeing an unexpected lack of hummingbirds right now?
