HELP - Trapped Birds

Magrred
11 years ago

For some reason this year and maybe because of the hurricane, I have been having literally hundreds of humming birds passing through the past several days. We have 5 feeders out and have been refilling them 3 to 4 times a day. While this in itself is good, now comes the problem. My barn which is a large metal building with large (16 x 16 foot) roll up doors on each end and is located approximately 50 yards from the house has been attracting the birds. (The feeders are at the house, not at the barn.) The birds go inside and only a very few will come out. They will only fly upward. I would guess there are approximately 25 or more birds in the barn now. I have tried everything I know of to entice them to come out to no avail. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I am located in southwest Mississippi. Thanks
