My husband is a very dedicated feeder and friend iof hummingbirds. At the height of the summer he is keeping six feeders clean and filled using about a gallon of sugar water a day. After "our " birds left, a lone migrator began feeding at the last feeder we left out. This was about mid October. We were concerned and wondering when this juvenile would leave. Figuring that it just needed to fatten up we just kept feeding it. Well, it is still here. We are in southeastern CT. The average daytime temperature is in the 30's with nighttime temps dropping to the teens. Will it freeze to death ? Please advise us on what we should do. Thank -you , a hummer friend
