[CT Birds] Winter Hummingbird

[recoverywing at cox.net]

I can't speak for Mark but I did not hear of these other hummers that stuck around for any length of time.  We would certainly like the oppurtunity to band  any hummingbird in CT after October 1st.

For those of you who do not know.  Mark Szantyr and I have a permit to band hummingbirds and are eager to do so for any hummingbird currently coming to a feeder.

Is there contact info for the rubyhtroat? Was that bird definitively identified as a rubythroat? Thats an interesting bird for late October.

I can also be reached at at 860-276-8433, which is checked for messages much more frequently than email.
