Ontario and Pennsylvania tied this week for third place in number of reports, but these accounted for just 60 and 52 hummers, respectively. Many of their reports tell of single birds per sighting and more days between sightings. Compare with second-place Illinois, with 43 reports for 334 hummers. Moving south!

"Saw an adult female in my zinnia patch at about 2 p.m. This is the first one I've seen since Sept. 14." Laura Wikston, Welland ON  09/23/14
