Yes! It seems the Ripley Hummingbirds will be featured in a Washington Post article tomorrow, perhaps in the Metro section. In another vein, can anyone tell me when they last saw the Black-chinned? My last view was December 10. In yesterday's email I said it hadn't been seen since the 14th, and now I can't lay my hands on whatever documentation I had for that date.
