I had a couple of females around May 1, the first male about a week later.
They only showed up a couple of times. I now have at a male and a female but
I only see them early morning or right before dark. they are not visiting
the feeder hardly at all during the day and not that often overall.

We always have them at our feeder but this year we saw one a couple times
and now have not seen them for a long time.
