It's hummer time!

A note from Carolyn Minson

It is time to clean and put out hummer feeders.

As you likely know, hummingbirds are on their way. During the recent Audubon meeting, there was one report of a hummingbird sighting. Today, another sighting in the Village was reported.

Neither of these have been reported to the Hummingbird Migration Center, but if you want to check the reported sightings, you can do so here:  Spring 2018 Migration of Ruby-throated Hummingbirds
