Although we've been away from home a bit--think the cool mountains of North Carolina and West Virginia--we still had time to catch a few Ruby-throated Hummingbirds "This Week at Hilton Pond." For a discussion of our midsummer lull--plus a possible answer to a perplexing hummingbird question--please check out our photo essay for 22-31 July 2010 at http://www.hiltonpond.org/ThisWeek100722.html
Don't forget to scroll down for a list of all birds banded and recaptured during the period, as well as an acknowledgement of this week's donors. Happy (Hot!) Nature Watching!
