@paigea They stay until around October most years, depending on the weather.

Do you ever pull the centers out of the honeysuckle and suck on the nectar inside? I used to do that when I was a kid.

@CarolDM Why should the birds get all that sweet nectar to themselves?

I'm not familiar with honeysuckle and wouldn't recognize it. When does it normally quit growing or blooming there? I'm guessing the change in climate will produce changes for all our blooms. Maybe from now on if the summers continue as they were this year.

The end of summer, or late September, depends on the weather.
