The wife saw two Hummingbirds on the porch today. Low 30's at night and high near 50. I was thinking it was a bit early for thier arrival. Anyone else got Hummers flying around? -robert

Wow! I'm not counting on any for another two months or so, probably late April for us. Only have Chickadees, nuthatches, and a bunch of brave finches this Winter.

Guess I need to get my feeders out and get them all disinfected and ready to go!

Sidwuffler...great map. I see the 2012 dates for our area match our experience. I'll keep an eye on this map so we get out feeders out at just the right time.

Check out Journey North site they have maps for birds, butterflies, ect. it's a great site worth checking in on. You can join and report your sitings. To early for hummingbirds here yet but guess I should get the feeders ready.

Texas had its first one posted today. I have a feeder up already for any tired early arrival.


Thanks for the link. Looks like we had em 28 Feb last year. Never thought about them being here that early. Thanks again.
