After a hiatus of 2 weeks or more, I am happy to report that Ruby-throated Hummingbird numbers are on the rise. I saw at least 5 or 6 this evening alone, and I'm sure there are more. After a period of time when the nectar was turning cloudy in the feeders, it is disppearing at an alarming rate again.
