🌸✨ The Hummingbirds Are Coming! ✨🌸 Ever

🌸✨ The Hummingbirds Are Coming! ✨🌸

Every spring, Ruby-throated Hummingbirds—the tiniest birds in New York—make an incredible journey all the way from Central America to Dutchess County… and they're arriving NOW! 👀

These little travelers usually show up between mid-April and early May, and this week is PRIME TIME to put out your hummingbird feeders to welcome them! In fact, last year one was spotted as early as April 20th in Chappaqua!

Fun facts:
-Only Ruby-throated Hummingbirds live in our area.
-The males arrive first, scouting the best spots.
-They love red flowers and sugar-water feeders!
-Spot one? Share a photo—we’d love to see it!

Feeder tip: Mix 1 part sugar with 4 parts water (no red dye needed!) and hang your feeder in a shady spot.

To learn more and see an updated migration map, check out Hummingbird Central here: https://www.hummingbirdcentral.com.

Let’s roll out the red carpet (or red flowers) for these magical migrants. Happy hummingbird watching, LaGrange!
