Our hummingbirds have come to the end of their migration trails. Whether you see your first hummingbird, or notice nectaring or other behaviors, please report. Maps will be up through the summer.

"First Ruby-throat sighting is 3 to 4 weeks later than normal." 05/25/15 Whitecourt, Alberta

"Female Rufous attempted to feed on red handle in garage. Only one we've seen so far this year." 05/24/15 Cold Lake, Alberta

Where did my hummers go?
Now that it's early-June, observers are noticing that it seems their hummingbirds have virtually disappeared.

"This has been such a disappointing year in Syracuse for hummingbirds. Only twice did I see a small male at my feeder. I wonder why?"
05/27/15   Syracuse, New York

Hummingbird expert Lanny Chambers says one reason for the lull in sightings this time of year is females are tending their nests. Females are out in search of insects and spiders for their chicks. In addition, abundant natural nectar is available.
