Default The hummies are coming!
The hummies are coming! The hummies are coming! The hummies are coming! The hummies are coming! The hummies are coming!

One of my favorite parts of civilized weather is the hummingbirds. Track their migration here, and report any sightings to aid in the tracking:

FYI: Males have a very dark, almost black hood while females have a white breast, are a little bigger, and tend to sport slightly more muted colors.

This particular site is focussed on the Ruby Throated found in the bulk of the midwest. If you're pretty well west of the Mississippi river, different maps apply.
