This spring’s first ruby-throated hummingbirds have finally arrived in Massachusetts. To celebrate, here are five beautiful portraits of these birds from past editions of our Photo Contest. Also, you can report your sightings and find answers to some frequently asked questions about hummingbirds.

I attempted (many times) to report a hummingbird sighting and would receive a message that my email and zip code don’t match your records. [email protected] and zip: 01012.
