I was the same way in May usually get 2 to 3 pairs at first but only observed one male until about the 10th of june they arrived and now i have 16 or so which have been feeding heavily, although i have noticed in the past few days less frequent the females are at the feeders just early in the morning and late at night. I am thinking they are nesting which is late here where i am Rainy Lake Ont. Every where i have read people are reporting lower numbers. It will be interesting when migration arrives to see if the numbers pick up.

ebows,

I'm in eastern Iowa and I've been asking the same question. Last year was my first attracting hummers and I had a couple regulars visiting my yard/feeder several times a day from late June through July. Two days ago I saw my first hummer in three weeks and even this one hasn't returned. It has been a terrible year for hummers here.

I have been getting hummers for 4 years, but I only ever see one at a time. Not sure why. ????? Anyway, I live (in Rock Co) in southern WI too and I agree. I have not seen very many hummers this year at all. I'm lucky if I see one or two a week!

This is my first year having hummers. We have moved to a new area and I keep three feeders out. I have had at least 20-30 that visit my feeders on a regular basis. In the past week I have noticed the number has dropped considerably and nothing has really changed. I am wondering if this is kind of late for nesting???
