Anyone else have an unusually large number of hummingbirds this year?

Most we have seen at one time is three. I put out 1 cup split in two feeders so can not be many birds.

We still have at least three (could be more, wish they would wear name tags )
Refilled feeder and they have been hitting it hard, probably will leave soon

We have had less this year I think. Had 6 earlier but down to 2 now. Seems in the past few years we could count 10 or more on our 6 feeders that are here and there around the house and garage.

I have not been able to watch the feeders much lately, but it seems the Alaskan/Canada contingent of Rufous have been headed south based on feeder usage. Sorry to see them go, but I love or resident Annas.

Hummers have left town. Last week we were seeing ~50. Earlier this week the count suddenly dropped to 3. Today - zero. I'm not sure if they left town due to the hurricane forecasted to come through here, or perhaps it just that time of the year for them to seek a better place to winter.
At any rate, we enjoy them when they're here, and will have plenty of food for them when they decided to return.

On the south shore of the big lake, we've not seen any for some time. Seems earlier than average.

Our hummers left about 3 weeks ago but we did get one just flying through a week ago. The bees finished off the feeder so I took it down.

I will take down the feeder, last time we saw a bird was a week ago, probably flying through down south.

Idk what’s going on but I find a dead Hummer in my shop, laying on the mower step EVERY YEAR.!!

We haven't seen any in maybe 7 days and that's typical of Ohio. For the season we had less than average birds and figured out too late that our higher foliage near the feeders might have kept them away. Anyone know if too high foliage near feeders will keep birds away?
