I saw the last hummingbird at our feeders this past weekend and none since. That jives with the migration information I found online. By all accounts they head south mid to late Sept. I’m not really into bird photography per se but I had fun trying to capture a few in flight and will no doubt try to get a few shots again next year. The photography is interesting, if for no other reason, than to be able to see some detail in these speedy, elusive little creatures.
Apparently they gather primarily in Louisiana and Texas before crossing the gulf to winter in Mexico. They fly low according to various sightings. Some have been seen skimming just above the water and even using high waves as wind breaks. Fascinating!
