    I didn't make it clear. I was referring to hummingbird feeders. I haven't seen any my self in the winter but there are quite a few verified reports here in the winter. I see them from April through October but we only see Ruby Throated. A lot of strays in the winter are Rufus.

    I have not seen them. The local Audubon society reports then occasionally. They are more plentiful along the Georgia Coast. I really would like to see one.

    I saw some Goldfinches here this weekend that had almost completely turned. It is about time for them to leave. Some of them nest in the North Georgia mountains but not here.

    I am starting to see the Goldfinches get a little darker and the Redbirds are getting brighter but the large flocks of Goldfinches. I haven't seen any Cedar Waxwings this year. I usually have a large flock that strips the berries off of my Savannah Hollies in about 3 days.
