What studies or logical theories support your statement,

And how could feeding hummingbirds in the winter not change their
wintering or migratory patterns?
If you weren't feeding them they would be somewhere far to the
south of Washington where plants ARE flowering, probably in Arizona or southern California
Because when I look outside of my window I don't see any flowers
providing nectar for hummers, just man made hummingbird feeders
and now they have handwarmers attached to them.
How could that NOT change Hummingbirds natural behavior?
Can anyone provide a theory for that?
