Yes, we have noticed the hummingbirds not frequenting the feeders very much
but we also have noticed a lot of hummingbirds along the road where we walk,
feeding in the Himalayan Blackberries which are really flowering profusely,
also seeming to eat aphids off various bushes. Just changing their diet I
would think. there are many more blossoms and insects around now.
