Cascadia Hummingbird Report - 4/12/2001

I just got a report by US mail from Tee Harbor, AK (near Juneau)
in today's mail. A female RUFOUS HUMMINGBIRD seen there on 4/8/2001
was (more or less) on time. I have also been getting late reports
(most by snail mail) from other sites.

A female CALLIOPE HUMMINGBIRD was reported from Kaleden in the Lake
Okanagan Valley on 4/8/2001 the same bird (presumably) was reported
again on 4/10. This is on the early side for British Columbia and
no Calliopes have been reported from Oregon or Washington.

I have also received extra-limital report of Rufous Hummingbird
from Ohio and Texas. These reports are being recorded in the main
database (so keep 'em coming), but will not show up on the maps.
