Hummingbirds usually start migrating in late summer, around August.
Males tend to migrate first, followed by females and then the young birds.
Migration timing can vary based on species and regional climate.
Most hummingbirds travel solo, not in flocks like other birds.
They cover hundreds of miles each day during their migration journey.
Hummingbirds follow a specific route, often the same one each year.
The timing of their return north in spring depends on food availability.
