Message from Ruth & Jim:

This is a very concerning time in our society. Our hearts go out to everyone now being impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

In Native American Culture, hummingbirds are seen as Healers and Messangers of Love,
Good Luck and Joy.
They also symbolize courage and resilience because of their long migration.
We hope your hummingbirds bring some comfort and distraction from these trying times.


The Hummingbirds Are On Their Way!

We have received sightings up into Virginia this week.

The Hummers are definitely on the move.

April is the busiest month for the hummingbird migration!

Most areas in the U.S. have their friends back by the end of the month. We, up north, usually have to wait until May to see our feathered friends!

So far, it seems to be the usual start time for our beloved hummingbirds.

Please submit your sightings to our Interactive Migration Map!

Your sighting will help everyone following the migration.

Some Helpful "Hummingbird Gear"
You Might Consider.

Check your feeders for damage or leaks and maybe replace them. Make sure they are clean and you have all the accessories you need such as an ant moat to keep those pesky ants off your feeders or a "Hummer Helper Helmet" to shade your feeders in the hot sun.
