3. I still have my feeder up for stragglers. The locals have been gone for 2 weeks, but I still see one nearly every day.

That's going to end very soon though, as the overnight temperatures drop and the local sources of nectar dry up.
It's sad to see them go each year.
The feeders right outside the kitchen window, and I watch them as I sit at the kitchen table.
I take great pleasure in seeing them come to feed, and watch the territorial disputes for control of the feeder.
When they're gone, so is summer.
