Do humming bird come around in august.i live in the missouri bootheel?

Answers:
The hummingbird you get there is the Ruby-throated Hummingbird and they will soon be leaving to migrate to Central America and the tip of Florida for the winter. There may still be some stragglers around for the next month or so.

well, i live in texas and it is hot and humid down here. so, unless they fly south for the summer to fry, i would think that you should, because i have a little humming bird friend that visits my zinias every day. wether he is hot or not, i cant say, but we have them in texas in the summer, and down here it is pretty dang hot.
i think you just need to plant a good flower garden that is very humming bird friendly. you might try some sights about which flowers are the best for this.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
Ruby-throated Hummingbirds should be migrating through your area over the next few months. I live in New Hampshire and I usually see my last one in mid-September. You can leave your feeders up until you are sure they have all passed by on their way to South America. Maybe as long as December. They need all of the food they can find for their 2000 mile migration including a 500 mile flight over the Gulf of Mexico.
Happy Birding, John

I live in St. Louis and we have humming birds around our house all day long...more than you could count yesterday. My mom (also in St. L) is an avid humming bird watcher and she typically has humming birds in flower gardens and around the house until late Sept. or early Oct. so if they are in my area, they must be in yours.
