Two ruby-throated male hummers showed up to feed on, and fight over my Oriole feeder (orange slice) on Monday 5/4/09 at 9AM.

We are at about a 1,100 ft. elevation, 55 miles northwest of Boston, at the foot of Wachusett Mountain (2,000 ft. peak elevation).

For the past 14 years, hummers have shown up at our bird feeders between May 5th and May 9th, without fail. We recently had warm weather, which may explain the earlier sighting.
