My mother has a book about all birds and it says that as soon as you see a 
hummingbird or suspect you have one, to go ahead and set out feeders.  I 
don't know if they come south in the winter (I suspect they do), but the book 
also says to keep a feeder available even in the winter just in case any are 
left behind.   Aren't they great to watch!  I just love to watch them.  It 
really upsets me to watch them fight over a feeder when I have 3 available!  
TTYL.
