I'd keep the one up b/c I have a "just in case" hanging out in my yard. It's either a female Rufous or an Allens Hummer both of which are unusual for Texas. Its been here about 10 days now. I cannot get a good pic though and I can't get one of the tail fanned out to see which of the two hummers it is. Here's a bad pic.

I also had a little yellow warbler trying to drink from the hummer feeder this morning. I adapted one last year for the warblers. I guess I need to do that again, but I also want to keep one that's bee free for this unusual hummer. I might just have to get another feeder!
