I was talking about the decline of their numbers appearing this season, "if it's not avian flu"

@Versa, that is not avian flu. That comes from moldy feeders.

If it's not avian flu, maybe the heatwaves are throwing off their migrations.

I DO know I've seen some sick hummingbirds, but I suspect these are cases of neighbours not cleaning their feeders. The tongue swells up and the hummingbird can't drink... :(

@Versa, yeah it makes sense. UT is known for their water birds though especially with the great salt lake.

The struggle is if it spreads to the flying flocks. Then the bigger warnings go around. It's not that it primarily affects water birds, as much as it is the water birds aren't really interacting with the other species, if that makes sense

@Versa, that is my understanding, yes. I am in UT and you are way over in TN though.

Wolf,
Other than the fit it has thrown, it's... Doing hand things I guess, functioning as I'd hope while screeching about it angrily. LOL

Ahhh, so you were told to worry about water birds probably because that's what's currently sick in your area. Over here, there's major warnings of avian flu going around and it's suggested feeders are taken down entirely. So it's chill over there, currently

@Versa, I thought about taking my feeder down, but was told in my area to only worry about water birds at the moment. I haven't refilled it anyways though since I hardly see any visitors, but that is typical for summer.

Hummingbirds are considered to be low risk for avian flu.

Nah, it's hitting a lot of things... I've had to bleach my brand new feeder three times already because of sick visitors

I'm willing to bet avian flu has something to do with it, sadly.

I'm definitely curious to know if others have seen less too.

@Cloud, I just made a post in one of my birding groups on Facebook to see if anyone else is experiencing something similar. =/

We've had very few hummingbirds here in Idaho too :(

What do you look at when deciding to enter a horse into the FEDs? I have been pre planning and entering them based off Yearly Points. (Previous RO) I thought this meant they were performing well but, I noticed a few of them were in the negatives on profit so.. HELP MEH.

*They made it to the championships but, have negative profits... I don't get it. Example: Clicky

Pretty please. :3

It looks like you entered your horse in every Fed and Special show available, but his scores indicate he wasn't ready. For example, a %0.00 score in dressage means he just leveled up and has no experience in that new level. So as a result, he placed 12th in that class and any placing under 7th will lose you money.

You want to avoid entering horses in shows that they aren't ready for because that will result in the horse having negative profits. Watch to see if they leveled up recently because that will tell you to wait about a month before entering them again.

Another thing you might want to change is to go to the bottom of the Barn Manager page and make sure they are showing only Competitive horses. Right now, your horses are showing in every show regardless of whether they are ready, which will also lose you money.
