I don't know this for a fact, but I believe that the cold isn't as much of a threat to the hummers as lack of food. If there were still things blooming on the way south, I think the hummer would be fine.

I still have one here. I'm not seeing it as much though b/c it's not fighting with other hummers. I did cut down the tree-like milkweed. It was interfering with bird photos. There's still milkweed out though as in this photo. I've seen lots of monarchs too. I forgot that they migrate too. There's one on the milkweed right now.
