Hi Everyone,
 
I haven't seen anything regarding Ruby-throated Hummingbirds in Nova
Scotia for a couple of weeks. Are they still at people's feeders? Did
they all perish or move on? To give you all an idea of just how
extraordinary the sightings were, here are the Nova Scotia first arrival
dates 'reported' for the last 8 years:
 
2007 - Apr. 21
2006 - Apr. 14
2005 - Apr. 23
2004 - Apr. 23
2003 - Apr. 28
2002 - Apr. 30
2001 - May 4
2000 - Apr. 18
 
If anyone out there can update the status of their early appearing
hummingbirds I'd appreciate hearing about it.
 
All the best,
 
Lance
