Which area of So MD are you in? Have a feeder for the last few days but have not seen anyone return yet. I'm in La Plata.
He's in WV.
Yeah, but you guys should be getting them too. See - http://www.hummingbirds.net/map.html The 4/12 sighting in central WV is me.
That might explain it.I don't have any here. Probably because I don't have feeders.

Do any of you feel that you have fewer hummingbirds than normal this year? I only see one at the feeder occasionally. In years past there have been several buzzing about and chasing each other away. I know the bluebird population was decimated by the winter and I was wondering if a late frost hurt affected early arrivers?
Can't really tell til mid-June. They always dribble in late April/early May, then most disappear for 3 to 4 weeks, then come back in droves early to mid June. Haven't noticed this spring being any different than years past.

Do you ever see (or hear) any bob whites up where you live?
