Any returns yet in the lakes region?

I've had a feeder up since Friday (4/24) and I have yet to see any visitors.

I have also had the feeders up with no takers so far.

Hummingbird Central says they have been spotted all around the broader region, Strafford, Northfield, Bridgewater, Plymouth, Center Sandwich, Tamworth, and West Ossipee, so they are close.

Just had our first hummingbird at our feeder in Center Harbor.

saw my first single male today in Blackey cove. His wings and my heart is aflutter

First sighting this morning. A female. It’s normally the males I see first.

Our feeders are out in Belmont but no takers other than the woodpeckers.
