Greeting The New Year With Hummingbirds
Hummingbirds help to ring in the new year.
Happy New Year
We welcome 2023 and celebrate all our volunteers who submit observations for the Journey North Hummingbird Project.
Where are hummingbirds now? Your observational reports provide critical information about hummingbirds during the winter months. Please keep reporting your observations. We welcome sightings from Mexico and Central America and across the U.S. and Canada during the months of January and February.
December and January Hummingbird Happenings
Anna’s hummingbirds observed as far north as Washington State in the US. Rufous and Ruby-throated hummingbirds seen across the Gulf states and into North Carolina. Many observers have been captivated by rare sightings of Rufous and Allen’s hummingbirds as far north as New York State and Massachusetts.
