The hummingbird has been seen at the Stoddard house # 134 hwy 309 in =
Port Clyde (Exit 28 hwy 103) just beyond the bridge. Sylvia Fullerton =
and I went down this am and chatted with the Stoddards who said the bird =
had first shown up on Mother's Day but reappeared after the cold spell. =
The bird is coming to a window feeder and they have seen the flash of =
purple from within the house. Sylvia and I sat outside for 2 hours =
watching the feeder and saw a hummingbird that could have been the =
Black-chinned but we could not verify it. No pictures I took were =
useful. There was a Ruby-throated hummingbird coming to the feeder as =
well. We watched from shortly after 8 and noticed that the frequency of =
visits increased as it got warmer. The visits were approximately at 5-10 =
minute intervals. Thanks to Donna Ensor who had first gotten the call =
from the Stoddards and alerted us. Later we did some atlassing around =
Lockporte and pulled in for a lunch stop on a road called 'The Lane' and =
heard a Willow Flycatcher. This lane is just below Rockland on the =
Rockland Rd. which is on the east side of Lockporte Harbor (page 87 of =
the Atlas).  =20
