    You must have the rufous or other MTN species that don't really migrate. Those just go from upper elevations to lower ones in winter instead of to Mexico like the Ruby throated hummingbirds that we have here.

    Here's the sightings map in Wisconsin. I added mine to it the other day. When I added mine there was only a couple signs reported in my town and close vicinity. Now there's a LOT more. Screenshot_20250501-093907.png

    Good progress.

    Thankfully, mine is as done as it is going to get. Still no tractor (someday-sigh) here so everything was done by hand. One of the most appealing aspects of my purchase was the long driveway. You can not see any thing when driving by on the road.....just a driveway and gate.
