It is one of those happy coincidences in life: many of the plants adept at attracting our attention are also considered among the best flowers to attract hummingbirds, hungry for the food that they bear.

Huegel Centuries ago their plumage was used to adorn Native American ceremonial costumes. Even today, some people believe that the hummingbird's glittering plumage contains mythical powers. However, most of us merely enjoy watching these sparkling gems of the bird world. Description Hummingbirds live only in the Americas. Of the 338 species known, 16 are found in the United States and 3 occur in Florida. Black-chinned and rufous hummingbirds occasionally can be seen in Florida during the winter. The ruby-throated hummingbird Range The ruby-throat's breeding range extends from central Kansas to the east coast and from Saskatchewan to central Florida. Although some birds may stay in south Florida year-round, most winter in Mexico and South America. Males arrive in Florida in March. Females arrive about a week later. Nesting Flying Feats One of the most fascinating things about hummingbirds is their helicopter-like flying stunts. Not only can hummers suspend their bodies in midair as shown in

They dart and hover, zipping sideways, backwards, up and down. Their beauty and agility fascinate us and bring action to the garden. Hummingbirds need high-energy fuel and they get it from the nectar that certain flowers produce. In return, hummingbirds transfer pollen from the male part of a flower (the stamens) to the female part (the pistil) of a different flower. Flowers that are especially adapted for hummingbird pollination are long and tube-shaped and often red.

Then it took off with the appearance of a young male Green-breasted Mango in Dublin, GA. This very rare hummer to the US has only been recorded three times outside of Texas. Keep your feeders clean and ready, you might get a visit from one of these winter hummers as they head back to their nesting areas.. If you should get one let us know by Reporting Your Hummers ! We are interested in knowing about any hummingbird sighting after November 1st until March 1st. The first arriving Ruby-throats should be seen in the southern most part of the state as early as the last couple days in February.

compiled by Stacy Jon Peterson Eagle River, Alaska Visit Alaska Focus Nature Photography where I sell my fine art wildlife and scenic prints, supporting nonprofit groups nationwide. Web Trochilids.com Created on: 10 January 2001 FatBirder Web Ring Linking Birders Worldwide Join Vagrant Hummingbirds! Hummingbirds aren't the feeble waifs people once thought; significant numbers of several western species survive in the eastern US each winter. The most common are Rufous Hummingbirds, with over a thousand now reported annually. This species can, and does, occur in EVERY eastern state, often annually. Rufous aren't the only odd hummingbirds out there. Many rarities are noticed after the "regular" species have departed in the fall. Like Rufous in Tennessee seen after the Ruby-throats depart, or Anna's in Idaho and Alaska recognized after the Rufous have left. If you want to increase the odds of seeing a vagrant hummingbird, keep fresh nectar (3 or 4:1, water:white table sugar) in at least one feeder late in the fall after your expected species have all departed or even all winter if you're really ambitious. See the FAQ for more information on attracting hummingbirds.

Rufous Hummingbird Adult male Rufous Hummingbird (Selasphorus rufus) by Bob Sargent (excerpt from Netlines, the official poop sheet of the Hummer/Bird Study Group) This is the first installment in a series on hummingbirds that we have encountered in the Southeastern United States as part of our study of this wonderful family of birds. We will be giving some opinions based on our work and observation both in the hand and in the field. As with any scientific endeavor, the truth is constantly revealing itself to those that systematically search for it. We are engaged in that search, thanks to the generosity of our members What you will read here will surely be refined and updated in the future by other qualified researchers, including current members of our staff. This phenomena of a separate population of Rufous might even suggest that now or in the future these individuals might be considered a separate race. There is precedent in other species of hummingbirds for separate races. Part of our study is to accurately record and photograph those Rufous that we encounter in an effort to determine if there are plumage or structural differences that would support such a hypothesis. What cannot be denied is that the Rufous that we do encounter year after year are not vagrant birds

39. Legends & Folklore Of Birds: Hummingbirds - . hummingbirds in British Columbia folklore and in other First Nations cultures. http://www.folklore.bc.ca/Hummingbirds.htm

The British Columbia Folklore Society Hummingbirds in Folklore and Legend. The American anthropologist Dr. George M. Foster, in , (1949) Maria Leach (ed.) New York, 1972, p.510 writes HUMMINGBIRD: A minor character in American Indian folktale and mythology. The northern Paiute Indians [U.S. Great Basin area] say that Hummingbird once filled his pants full of seeds and started on a journey to see what was beyond the sun. He ate only one seed a day, but had to turn back because his food gave out. He didn't see anything. In eastern Brazil, Hummingbird is the character who hoarded water so that the people had none at all until the Caingang and Botocudo Indians released it. Philip Drucker, on page 451 of The Northern and Central Nootkan Tribes [on the west coast of Vancouver Island] Smithsonian Institution Bureau of American Ethnology Bulletin 144, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, 1951 wrote Pages 472-549 of The Report of the 70th Meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science Today the Skqomic are usually referred to as the Squamish. They live in an area to the north and north-west of Vancouver on the coastal mainland of B.C.

40. Hand Feeding Hummingbirds By The Hummingbird Lady On September 14, 2006 my wife Abigail decided she d like to touch one of the 20 or 30 hummingbirds that were swarming around our feeder at the peak of http://www.abigailsings.com/hummingbirds/

Abigail Alfano The Hummingbird Lady Hand Feeding Hummingbirds Abigail feeding hummingbirds in her jammies at 8:am On September 14, 2006 my wife Abigail decided she'd like to 'touch' one of the 20 or 30 hummingbirds that were swarming around our feeder at the peak of their migration. With patience and determination she accomplished her goal. I am her husband Sam, and I shot the photos of her hand-feeding hummingbirds in our yard here in near Franklinton, Louisiana. On September 20th The Era Leader newspaper published the photos on the front page. We then emailed them to a few of our friends and had no idea they would quickly be forwarded around the world. Many of our friends have called or emailed us saying they were forwarded photos of a lady feeding hummingbirds, and it was Abigail! Had I known the photos would spread like wildfire, I would have put our names on them. A Google search shows many sites, blogs, and forums posting these photos, with many people being skeptical of their authenticity. As a Photoshop user myself, I understand the skepticism. I can assure you that the photos are authentic in every way, with only standard adjustments such as cropping, sharpening, etc. We were also contacted by the Urban Legends dept. at About.com. Many people had forwarded the photos to them asking if they were real or fake. You can read the article here On a sad note , we were informed that one of Abigail's photos below had been used to win the Photo Friday picture contest on Lexington, Kentucky television station WTVQ. Each week the station awards prizes for the best photograph taken in Kentucky that week. A woman submitted the photo of the hummingbirds perched on Abigail's hands, claimed that it was her, and won. We hope she's enjoying her prize.
