Yeahhhhhh, I'm still waiting to see that blurred flash of green. I only have 2 feeders up myself right now. Hope to put 2 more up. I check multiple times during the day when I'm home for those little fairies :)

and now there are two! Second report looks like southwestern Erie county along the lake. Will post if I can pinpoint either location.

OK the first report came in from Glenville, NY. Is anyone close by? I am still waiitng to find out the exact location on the secnd siting in the southern tier but will report as soon as I find out

Penny

I don't know if anyone still cares about this, but my parents have 3 or 4 (they aren't sure if one is the same) at their feeder in Otego NY (Otsego County)

You or your parents should report the siting to Lanny on the Migration Map and also to Journey North's Field Data

Hi Penny,
I am about a half hour east of Glenville but nothing near me . On our local exchange site online everyone is talking about it and no one has seen any yet . I did see one last week but it was after a very red tropical hibiscus in Haiti so I guess that doesnt count. It was great to see the little ones again. Kareen

Kareen,
I really don't think it will be too long now. Most everyone around the country is reporting that theirs are arriving early and hopefully with the nice weather we have had thanks to those southerly tail winds, it will push them onward and upward. The first one arrived in Nova Scotia today so I am ready!

Penny

Well the first one has been reported in N. Tonawanda but it isn't me. Maybe he stopped over for the evening and is headed to my house today.
