Hi Tweets,

I just received an email from a producer from the PBS series, Nature. They are producing a program about hummingbirds and would like shots of 1. a Rufous Hummingbird nest and 2. the male display flight. This would all take place next spring.

In preparation, and in the name of education, I hope that you can answer several questions:

In this past year, did you

1. have Rufous Hummingbirds visiting your feeders this year?
2. know of any particular locations where displaying Rufous Hummingbirds were particularly reliable?
3. locate any Rufous Hummingbirds nests?

I apppreciate your help. This helps us gather where such activity may be *likely* this coming spring.

Thank you! Help make your Rufous Hummingbirds national stars!
