County Hummingbird Population
I have noticed a big shift in the mix of hummingbirds around the county this year. About 2 years ago my yard became overrun with Allen's, I live in an area that was almost all Anna's before this. This year almost all the Allen's are gone, a big change from last year and the year before. I have also observed this same phenomenon around Imperial Beach, and in the Bird and Butterfly area at the TJ river valley, and at the sunset ballfields.
Was there a big explosion of Allen's around the county that now has almost completely died off? I'm not seeing hardly any Allen's anywhere.
