With all the hummingbird chatter I thought I'd give a link to the Vermont eBird data for the last 5 years. You can see there is some annual variation and that we still have a bit of time with our tiny feathered jewels. http://ebird.org/ebird/vt/GuideMe?src=changeDate&speciesCodes=rthhum&getLocations=states&states=US-VT&parentState=US-VT&reportType=species&monthRadio=on&bMonth=08&eMonth=11&bYear=2009&eYear=2013&yearOptions=separateYears&continue.x=55&continue.y=13&continue=Continue It appears that Ian Worley holds the Vermont eBird record of Sept 29, 2012 as the latest reported date for them. You can see the latest dates for all species at http://ebird.org/ebird/vt/sightings?locInfo.regionType=subnational1&locInfo.regionCode=US-VT&continuous=true&beginYear=1879&endYear=2012&listType=last I highly encourage everyone to put in their hummingbird sightings, and in fact all bird sightings, so we can all have the benefit of examining data like this!
