As of yesterday morning we had a female coming to our feeder too. I think our
breeders departed on 9/12 but beginning again on 9/23 we've had one daily,
with the exception of today (could have just missed seeing it this AM). I
suspect this latest bird is a migrant that has chosen to stop and refuel for
awhile. It is a noticeably chunkier looking than the birds seen earlier this
month. Don't know if it is fluffed up due to the temperatures or if it has
added fat in preparation for migration.

Just one more sighting to add to all the others. I’ve been hearing from a
woman in Mecklenberg who still has a young male Ruby-throat coming regularly to
her feeder and she’s got the photos to prove it.
