Hummingbird Migration

When I was outside filling up my feeders, I noticed an old friend. It was my hummingbird feeder, sitting there waiting for another summer use. I thought to myself "Self, how is the hummingbird migration going?" So I got on my computer and checked out the learner.org site to see how far north the Ruby-throated Hummingbirds have reached. According to the map, they have reached Florida and are starting to move through Georgia, Alabama and a few other states.

It is just a matter of weeks before they reach Virginia. 

Hummingbird migration as of 14 March 2011.
