Female RT noted several times this afternoon, October 9th 2015.
Placed the feeders back out on September 15th after a summer of no sightings.
Last sighting this year was back in March.
Oct. 12 - Same Female RT making regular visits to feeder again today.
Oct. 13th - Same Female at feeder about noon today. Also feeding at a honeysuckle at edge of yard.
Oct. 14th - Same Female several times today.
Oct. 16th - Didn't see her yesterday even though I was in and around the yard most of the day. But she is back today with several visits to the feeder from 3PM on.
Oct. 17th - And now there are 2. Observed what I believe is the same FRT at the feeder several times this afternoon as I was planting a Dwarf Powder Puff bush in the yard. Low and behold a second FRT shows up.
Oct. 18th - Only noted one Female several time today. It's the first time I spotted her at a Fire Bush in the front yard instead of the feeder out back
Oct. 19th - Home only in the late afternoon today but I did spot one Female again around 5PM. Windy and cooler than usual day.n
Oct. 30th - The 2 FRTs still here thankfully. Have seen them darting between honeysuckle, Hong Kong orchid tree and then the feeders every day this month.
Nov 1-30th - Both FRTs have continued to visit feeders daily.
Dec 1-7th - Both FRTs have continued to visit feeders daily. There were 3 RTs starting Nov 18th but only seeing two regularly since Thanksgiving.
Dec 14th - Saw four RTs all at the same time this fine 84 degree afternoon. My still novice eyes make them to be the same 2 FRTs and smaller MRT that have been here for weeks. Today's addition is a noticeably larger MRT.
Jan 18th - Two RTs have remained since my last December note. One MRT and One FRT. Now that the temps have started dipping into the 40s at night they seem to drain the feeders quicker.
