If you have a winter hummingbird coming to a feeder in North Carolina,
please report it to Susan Campbell of the N.C. Museum of Natural
Sciences. For more information on winter hummers in NC and contact
info, see:

Rufous Hummingbird is our most common species in winter, but there are
many other possibilities!

It sounds like our former frequent poster has moved to Las Vegas. No more
longleaf pines? I'm originally from Arizona myself, where more different
hummingbirds are seen than in any other state. Hope you are enjoying it out
there!

Will and Elizabeth, I'm sorry about the confusion. Yes, it is a Nevada
Hummer that keeps me so amused while soaking in the spa.
