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.
Most hummingbirds head south by the end of August and the beginning of September.
No, hummingbirds do not hibernate. Instead, they go into a state of torpor during the night or when food is scarce to conserve energy. Torpor is a short-term, deep sleep that allows hummingbirds to reduce their metabolic rate and survive periods of cold or food scarcity.
A group of hummingbirds is typically called a charm.
Male hummingbirds have a territory and feeders within that territory belong to that male. Males will determine who gets to use the feeder. The male will "attack" any others by simply fly toward them and chasing them away and not let them return.
They return to western PA about 4/21.

Yes, hummingbirds often return to the same feeders every year, especially if they have had positive experiences with them in the past. They have excellent memories and can recall specific locations where they found reliable food sources. To attract returning hummingbirds, it's helpful to keep feeders clean and filled with fresh nectar. Consistent maintenance can encourage their return during migration seasons.

It is the dead of winter in the Northern Hemisphere, the Hummingbirds have gone south, and we're writing - again - about how to count them. For northerners, it's for future reference. The planet is tilting, spring will return, and so will the hummingbirds. Last August we published a method of estimating the number of Hummingbirds you feed based on the amount of nectar disappearing from your feeders. The method we suggested came from a book about hummingbirds by Dan True who, in turn, based his methodology on a 1973 scientific study.
