Any Hummingbird sightings?

I have to wait another month up here in Ohio, but I was wondering if any of our Southern friends have seen any........

HI @Nataliesgramma I think it will be early May for me. If I'm lucky. I put up the feeders the last week of April. It's my birthday present to myself!

I'll put out my feeders and big red bows, but it may take a couple years in my new surroundings before the hummies trust me to be faithful to them.

We've had a robin, but not hummindgirds yet (and my 2 feeders are not out). I'm probably going to wait at least another 6-8 weeks before I put those feeders out. We have 7 feeders out year round with seed.

Edit to add... I'm in the Northern suberbs of Chicago.... I know you were looking for our Southern friends to reply, but I thought I'd throw my comment into the mix too!!!

You're not really serious about those bows, are you violann? Plant some trumpet vine; they'll show up sure 'nuff.

Forgive another Yankee responding...my hums always come in early May.

Usually mid-April for me, but this year it's been so warm everywhere we might get a few early birds. Not yet, though--we just had a frost this morning.

None yet here in east central MS. Just checked the 2017 Migration Map and didn't see any reports of sightings there. I am also on a gardening group on FB and I haven't seen any posts about hummers there.
