As the migration ebbs, the number of reports continues to drop and single-bird sightings continue to dominate. Texas, Missouri, Georgia, and Virginia led in the number of reports this week. Keep watching — late-season sightings are valuable. Each report puts a dot on the map and shows where observers are still seeing hummingbirds.
"I have 2 hummers left, this one is enjoying the last of the zinnia."
