Hummingbirds
Migration News: October 17, 2014

Report Sightings!

A big dip in sightings signals a slowdown in the journey south. This week brought just half the number of reports and almost 60% fewer hummers than last week. Most reports are single-bird sightings, and many people are reporting their latest hummingbirds ever.

"We can't believe we are still seeing one here and there." Carolyn M. in Feyetteville, NC  10/13/14
