First Ruby-throated Hummingbird sighting today

Today I saw the first hummingbird of the season. He is about a week late to my yard, but it has been considerably colder than normal for the past 2 weeks here.

None so far here in Scioto County that I have seen. Usually they make their appearance the second week of April. Exceptionally late this year.

None here in Middletown yet, hope to see em soon though, they usually buzz my window here every summer at my computer room.. tells me hi every morning, gives me inspiration to know he has to be near!
Thanks for the reminder to keep the curtains open!

I had my first one on April 24th, the day it snowed and we had winds gusting to 40 mph! What a day to arrive in warm, sunny Ohio ....

I've since see 2 males and a female, they love the buckeye trees.

katbird, keep checking, I'm just up the road in Germantown.

My neighbor told me she saw one a couple days ago, a female. I'm from Oxford, north of Hamilton so I'm not far from you either Katbird. Keep watching..
