NC Vagrant Hummingbirds
The idea that these, or other, hummingbirds are present in North Carolina—or anywhere in the eastern United States—during wintertime is new and strange for many folks. But since the 1970s, a scattering of "vagrant" hummingbird reports have been published. Museum Banding Project In 1999 the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences began investigating occurrences of unusual and unexpected hummingbirds in the state during the months from October to March. This work is being carried out by longtime Research Affiliate Susan Campbell, in collaboration with Master Banders Bob and Martha Sargent, founders of the Hummer/Bird Study Group. As hummingbird reports come in from across the state, Campbell works to capture and band as many as she can.

Hummingbirds
Hummingbirds are one of only a small number of animal groups to have developed the trait of vocal learning. By studying the brain structures hummingbirds use in vocal learning we can learn about the requirements on the brains of all vocal learning species. This picture by Luiz Claudio Marigo of Brazil shows a rufous-breasted hermit hummingbird ( Glaucis hirsuta ) feeding on flower-nectar in the Atlantic Tropical Forest of Brazil. In this species singing induces gene expression in 7 forebrain regions, identifying forebrain vocal nuclei in hummingbirds. Click here to listen to the Glaucus hummingbird sing.

INSTITUTE FOR FIELD ORNITHOLOGY
HUMMINGBIRDS
25 July–1 August 2004 • Bisbee, Arizona
Instructors: Sheri L. Williamson and Tom Wood 2003 Workshop report and Bird list COURSE DESCRIPTION This workshop will cover the natural history, behavior, ecology, and identification of North American hummingbirds, with special emphasis on the fifteen species that occur in summer in southeastern Arizona. From urban gardens to exotic birding hotspots, hummingbirds hold equal fascination for both novice and expert birders. In this workshop you will learn natural history, behavior, ecology, and identification of North American hummingbirds, with special emphasis on the fifteen species that occur in summer in southeastern Arizona. In many species, the gaudy plumage of adult males is virtually unmistakable, while the more subtle colors and intricate patterns of females and immature males present identification challenges on par with raptors, gulls, and shorebirds. These popular birds also have a tendency to wander far afield, so a working knowledge of a variety of species is an asset to virtually any birder anywhere in North America. Mornings will be spent in the field, while afternoons will be divided between classroom sessions and additional field time. Classroom presentations will focus on aspects of hummingbird identification progressing from basic to advanced, including ageing and sexing, molt, behavior, voice, and wing sounds. Field trips will visit a variety of birding hotspots of particular interest to hummingbird aficionados but will not neglect the many other species that make this region so special.

  • Nectar is the hummingbird's favorite food. However, he will also eat insects and tree sap. The hummingbird will sometimes follow a woodpecker from one tree to another and will sip sap through the holes left by the woodpecker.
  • One hummingbird may visit up to 1,000 flowers per day.
  • The hummingbird may beat his wings 75 times per second.
  • The hummingbird can fly forward, backward, straight up, straight down, and upside down.
  • During migration, a hummingbird may fly 500 miles, non-stop, across the Gulf of Mexico. While migrating, hummingbirds live on fat reserves stored in their bodies.
  • At one tenth of an ounce, a grown hummingbird weighs less than a pencil.
  • The hummingbird's nest is slightly bigger than a walnut.
  • The hummingbird weaves its nest from pine needles, dry flowers, moss, grass and lichen. The outside is tough and waterproof. The hummingbird uses spiderwebs to hold its nest togtether. It lines the inside with cobwebs and feathers.
  • The hummingbird lays two white eggs, each the size of a pea.

Framed and matted prints of hummingbirds, songbirds, waterfowl, deer, butterflies, and fall foliage.
http://www.Racinphoto.com
Ray Herrick of Racin Wildlife Photography has been taking Photos of bluebirds and hummingbirds as well as chickadee ducks and other waterfowl and songbirds in the Adirondacks around Lake Placid Old Forge and Big Moose. While selling framed and matted prints of Moose River sunrise and Ausable River sunset and a Chittenango Falls print that is a favorite. We noticed people that were into nature and wildlife photography liked the way the sunset made the flowers around the base of Chittenango Falls stand out in the custom framed prints. These framed and matted prints of hummingbirds bluebirds chickadee and other songbirds are of the highest quality as are the ducks deer butterflies and all the rest of the scenic photography of the Adirondacks around Big Moose Old Forge and Lake Placid with fall Foliage and wildlife as the central subject using sunset and sunrise light when ever possible. The Ausable River near Lake Placid the Moose River near Big Moose and the bogs around Old Forge are a favorite place to take pictures of butterflies flowers deer but most of all the fall foliage is where we sell most of our framed and matted prints. The Adirondacks is a great place to take photos of deer waterfowl hummingbirds and other wildlife photography opportunities. Sunrise and sunset photos of lakes are always fun to photograph when you can put deer flowers fall foliage ducks or other waterfowl in the picture. The custom framed prints of scenic nature and nature as art as well as all other framed prints from Moose River to Chittenango Falls are available in birds eye maple and tiger maple at an extra charge. The custom framed prints are top quality and are a perfect match for the high quality scenic nature and art. The birds eye and tiger maple framed prints are truly a work of art.

I’m a great fan of hummingbirds. hummingbirds are small and often very small birds with habitat on the american continent only.
http://people.freenet.de/jfeldhusen/Hummingbirds.htm
Hummingbirds are small and often very small birds with habitat on the american continent only. But there we find them from Alaska high in the north to Tierra del Fuego at the southend of America. The red line in the following map surrounds the habitat of the Hummingbirds. In Germany and the rest of Europe there are no wild Hummingbirds. But many people there think they have seen one. It's no Hummingbird but a butterfly belonging to the family of Hummingbird Moths (Sphinx Moths) and is called Hummingbird Hawk-Moth (Macroglossum stellatarum) The german name of the Hummingbird family is "Kolibri", the french name is "Oiseau mouche", the spanish name is "Pica flor" and the portuguese name is "Beija flor". The scientific (latin) name is "Trochilidae". 328 species and hundreds of subspecies are known till now and all scientific names used in this text comes from the Handbook of the Birds of the World - Volume 5 One Hummingbird is more pretty than the other. If light comes perfect to plumage of a Hummingbird it often begins to glitter in different colors like a gem. Some species have special plume. For example a colored crown like the Frilled Coquette (Lophornis magnificus) or extra long tail feathers like the Red-tailed Comet (Sappho sparganura) . Most females are less brilliant but also very pretty.

Costa's Hummingbird Nests In Ridgecrest, Calif.
The Lady of the Lamp
For the TWELFTH consecutive year, a Costa's Hummingbird ( Calypte costae ) has nested in the bottom of a lamp in my patio. The picture on the left is of the first nest for 1997. The picture on the right is one the lamps which is 10 feet from the ground. Ridgecrest is a community in the Mojave Desert and my home is located at N35 35' 41" W117 39' 24" (NAD 27) at an elevation of 2320 feet. Temperatures vary from below freezing in the winter to well over 100 degrees in the summer. Costa's Hummingbirds are year around residents.
Below is the nesting data from years 1994-2003. Data from 1993 is not available as it was the first nest and I did not want to disturb the nesting activity. In 1995, this hummingbird successfully produced FOUR broods with the first egg laid on February 7th and the last hatchling fledging on July 23th. Post nest feeding continued into August. Over six months of continuous paternal activity. She was observed to be post nest feeding one brood while sitting on the eggs of the next brood. Whew !!!
Pictured on the left are the 1997-2 eggs. On May 3, one chick fledged the nest leaving its sibling behind (pictured right). The second chick fledged the nest in the morning of May 4.

Never use honey or artificial sweeteners. Honey will ferment easily, and is not healthy for the hummers. Artificial sweeteners have no food value. Feeder Care: Clean and change the nectar every 2-3 days, and check for mold every day. If you find mold (black spots) you will need to scrub the feeder with a good bottle brush, or add some sand and water and shake the feeder to remove the mold. Never use harsh detergent to clean your feeder. Rinse well with hot water each time you change your nectar. Clean the feeder on a regular basis and you should not have a problem with mold.

Nature's Little Jewels - Hummingbirds
A flash of color, a whisper of wings, a tiny squeak. Was it a figment of my imagination, a huge bug, a tiny angel? In the upcoming months, we will be welcoming home the beautiful hummingbirds. Leaving their tropical winter habitats where they've been staying this winter, these smallest of all birds will soon be making their annual migration north. The hummingbird's instinct to migrate is driven by surging hormones, regulated by the length of daylight hours. Males may migrate northward as much as three weeks earlier in the springtime than the females. Was there trouble at home? Did the males need a break from their mates?

A Shady Haven for Hummingbirds
With just a little planning, even the shadiest yards and gardens can draw in hummingbirds. All they need is food, water and a place to rest. Then sit back and watch the action!
Pick the Right Plants
Hummingbirds are quite fussy about flower color and shapes, so make sure you select ones they like. Hummers favor red and pink blooms, simply because they see these colors best. For flower shape, tubular blooms are best. Hummingbirds easily reach the nectar deep inside these blooms with their beaks. There are exceptions however! Begonias are great hummingbird plants, yet the blooms are not tubular. And they are often seen feeding from ginger lily blooms, which are white. When just starting out, stick with red or pink flowering plants that hummingbirds are known to feed from
