Will I see any hummingbirds at my feeder in November in Boca Raton-Fl ?
Not really. Most likely when the orioles come the hummingbirds will fly away. However, when the oriole leaves the hummingbirds will return again. If the hummingbirds do not return put up a oriole feeder that should keep it away from the hummingbird feeder.

Sometimes, male hummingbirds willl take possesion of a single feeder, driving away other hummingbirds..To remedy this, place another feeder away from the proximity of the first one, at least 100 feet.

Regardless of which migration route they take, hummingbirds will take the same path that was imprinted the first year that they flew. And they fly alone. Young hummingbirds do not follow their parents and they do not fly in flocks.
