I live in Friendswood, TX which is about half way between Houston and
Galveston. I have an influx of Black-Chinned hummers in my back yard. They
started coming in when the Ruby Throats came in. The hummers keep coming
until about the first week of November. What is unusual is the Black - Chins
and the numbers I have seen. I usually get a couple of black chins and a
Buff- Bellie each Fall, but the numbers have been much greater this year. I
still have at least 10 BCc in my yard today, and two BBs. The Ruby Throats
are mostly juveniles. I also counted thirty Monarch butterflies today.
