Are they are nesting? i can sit outside and not hear one bird cheerping. Once in awhile a juncko comes to the feeder and i do have a Gold Finch that comes morning and evening.. A Robin will come and take his daily bath and thats it....

Morning and Evening right now are the prime times. It is very hot during the day here on the east side and the birds are staying in cover. Evenings are still full of Quail, Pheasant, Finch, Sparrow, Raptor, and Starling activity. Right now is a great time to get Raptor photos. They are on nests and easy to find and pattern.

ardeekay Cream of the Crop  More info | Jul 04, 2012 19:17 | #5 I posted a similar question re hummers 3 weeks ago and that situation continues-even worse. Don't think I've seen a hummingbird in 2 weeks. We, too, are in the middle of a heat wave-100 deg. today. Not going downtown for the fireworks, that's for sure. Don't know if the heat has something to do w/ the absence of hummers. But other birds are here in usual numbers for me except another fav-male Goldfinches. It wasn't unusual to see 3-4 on the feeders at the same time; now, I see 1 or 2 per week probably. Anyway, those are my complaints-"Thanks for listening". Rog

WallaceRiver " ...a bit of a pervy voyeur "  More info | I know why there are a few less here. My local resident sharp-shinned hawk has been busy, I have found little piles of feathers near the feeders for 3 mornings in a row...

Jul 05, 2012 10:59 | #7 I just started putting out my hummer feeder a few days ago. Very little activity here in South Texas too. I usually only see one or two when I happen to be looking out, once a day or so. http://gallerytx.com
