[CT Birds] R-T Hummingbird in Southbury

[Judith Stevens]

This evening at 7:30 p.m. I watched my first RT Hummer devour sugar water, staying put for 10 minutes.  I live in Heritage Village in Southbury and my earliest recorded arrival was May 4th.  This male looks in good shape, but was obviously very, very hungry.
I'm hoping the female arrives soon.  There has been a pair in my yard the past three seasons.
