Hummingbirds are starting to return to Maine. At least three ruby-throated hummingbirds have been spotted in Bangor, Lewiston and Augusta and reported to the website “Hummingbird Central,” a hummingbird migration tracker run by amateur birding enthusiasts. The Maine Audubon Society says the ruby-throated hummingbird is the only one that shows up in Maine, but that could soon change. “Someday, years from now, with climate change, I’m expecting the rufous hummingbird to move more into the east,” Bob Duchesne with the Maine Audubon Society said.
