It is possible to see hummingbirds in November, depending on your geographic location. In some regions, certain species of hummingbirds may stick around later in the year before migrating south. Providing a consistent food source, such as a feeder with fresh nectar, can attract hummingbirds even in late fall.
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.

Using a hummingbird feeder with a perch can attract and feed hummingbirds more effectively. The perch allows hummingbirds to rest while feeding, reducing their energy expenditure. This can attract more hummingbirds to the feeder and provide them with a convenient and comfortable feeding spot. Additionally, the perch can make it easier for you to observe and enjoy watching the hummingbirds up close.
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.
