Charleen if it looks like they need help before the temperature cools or before goldenrod and other late summer/early autumn flowers start producing nectar we will feed them a heavier mixture of sugar syrup. Hopefully, they won't need it. We still have stuff blooming but some plants tend to shut down nectar production when it's too hot and not enough rain. Right now, they can forage on wildflowers in early morning and late evening when it's cooler.
