I guess the combination of not feeding for many hours and many flowers  
having been blown off/down is making hummingbirds desperate. I have some great  
video of two facing off over a feeder.  They have been at it off and on for 
 a couple of hours, hovering a few inches apart and then repeatedly  
smacking into each other.  They must be desperate to use up so much  energy and 
neither of them getting much of a drink. Just put up some more  feeders.
