The hummingbird feeders haven't shown any sign of feeding for 3 days, I guess the cool nights have sent them south. I'll put clean nectar in them for 2 more weeks "just in case" and for any last-minute migrators.
I'll miss seeing those little aerial fighters until next Spring.
And they are going to be surprised next Spring. I've found better feeders (Aspect Humzinger 8 ounce - and there are larger ones) and ordered 4 of them. The place will be filled with hummer feeders next year.
The "best1" feeders have started to break apart from cleaning and handling. I'll sure keep them as backups, but the Humzinger ones seem better.

I finally got about 3/4 of the daffodils planted. I have a front yard island bed surrounding the Saucer Magnolia tree and a 3' boulder ...

Mum was told to keep your feeder out for two weeks after you see your last hummer. That way the late migrators have a food source. We haven't seen one since Monday, so that means the feeder will be up until at least Oct 6 or so.
Sounds like great bird TV is coming for the mews.
