If you'd like to read the full report compiled by Dr. Erik Johnson, it's available on the LABIRD email group here.
Numbers of wintering hummingbirds are high so far this year! In addition to the many "Western" species reported, some Ruby-throated Hummingbirds have also been reported since November 15. This report is from before the deep freeze Louisiana experienced, but with the help of many dedicated hummingbird feeder fillers, many hummingbirds likely survived the freeze! Below is the breakdown for each species so far this season:

As always, please report your observations to Dr. Erik Johnson (Erik.Johnson AT audubon.org) with the following information:
Whether banded, when and by whom
If additional information is learned through further observation or banding, please report those updates and I'll make the changes. Also, please report the last observed (LO) date, if possible, when the bird leaves. This you can do more easily when the hummer has been banded and marked.
Observations of Ruby-throated Hummingbirds are requested if you see the bird after November 15.equested if you see the bird after November 15.
