Rufous Hummingbird Schedule



Dear Friends:

Several Carolinabirders have asked about the
schedule for Rufous Hummingbird in Chapel Hill.  We
have seen it two consecutive days at 8:00 am.  On
11/11/99, we saw the bird feeding at 8:00, 9:15am,
10:30am, and 12:45pm.   We did not look for it much
after 12:45pm.

We have not yet observed it feeding at the
hummingbird feeders.  We have also placed some
patio chairs for birdwatchers who may have to wait a
bit for the bird to show up.

I also noticed an immature sparrow today in the yard
that i think may be a Chipping Sparrow, but am not
sure.  Any help identifying this bird would be
appreciated.

Hope this helps,
