Phantom hummingbord???
I keep my feeders up late, I had a hummer show up on a chilly November day about five years ago so now I leave my feeders out late.
I haven't seen a hummer since October but something is feeding from the feeders. Maybe Woodpeckers?
One night I thought I saw a light colored blur fly up to a feeder and spend a few seconds before flying off.
When I was in Arizona I saw a moth that mimicked a hummingbird so well I took it for one until I got closer at about 4:00AM.
I'll keep filling them until they get enough, but I am curious about what I am feeding.
