'Hummers' stayed 94 days this summer

Pat Cromie of Delmanor Retirement Residence in Aurora, Ontario, has taken down our Ruby-throated hummingbird feeders after 98 days this summer (May 28 to Sept. 3).   The last 'hummer' to leave, on the last day, was a first-year youngster.   At the height of the season there were 60 to 70 visits a day at the feeders, lasting everywhere from 15 seconds to 2 minutes each time.
