Thom Smith: Help us keep a (Nature)watch on arriving hummingbirds

â Michael W. This year, NatureWatch welcomes reports of the first sightings of ruby-throated hummingbirds with the number seen, date, location and your name. Please email Naturewatch41@gmail.com. In 1900, according to Birds of Berkshire County, Mass., Walter Faxon and Ralph Hoffmann (our local bird club is named after this gentleman) listed this birdâs earliest arrival as May 3. In 1999, the earliest was only one day earlier, according to Birds of Berkshire County by Bartlett Hendricks, who listed May 2 as being the earliest, and May 15 as being the average. The earliest a ruby-throated hummingbird has been seen in the Berkshires was on April 4, 2000, (in Windsor), in Annotated List of the Birds of Berkshire County, Massachusetts, by David P. St. James in 2017. The earliest record for the arrival of this hummingbird in Birds of New England, by Edward A. Samuels, published in 1870, was rather vague â between May 15 and 25.
