<br><font size=3>This does not surprise me. I've been growing native
Aquilegia canadensis in my garden since 1997. Hummingbirds seem to
"miss" the peak flowering of this red columbine at least five
years our of six. Dr Trager probably has similar records. If
you check the literature online you may find a paper in which red columbine
and the ruby throat phonologies seem to have "decoupled" in places
in North or South Carolina. Seed set is now accomplished either by
bees or via self-pollination (almost all columbines studied to date are
highly self compatible). </font>

Climate Change Causing Hummingbird Missed Connections<br>
By LiveScience Staff | LiveScience.com -- Sat, Jun 2, 2012<br>
<br>
Missed connection: Me, a broad-tailed, red-throated hummingbird. You, a
<br>
delicate yellow flower full of nectar. I flew all the way from Central
<br>
America to find you, but you'd withered away. Why did you bloom so<br>
early?<br>
<br>
