No, not in my yard. But I picked up this post from the Alabama listserv
and felt excitement. They are close!

Albirders Yesterday we had our first TWO adult male Ruby-throated
Hummingbirds
detected at our feeders. Statistically one of these will be an already
banded
resident male that will spend the summer chasing girl hummers in our yard.
Yellow Jasmine and Red Buckeye are now opening and full of tiny bugs.
The
buckeyes are 10 feet tall and the blooms are full of nectar. The timing
is astonishing! It is the little stuff that happens around us every day
that blows my mind! Martha's Salvia Guaranitica garden has and
estimated
1000 plus plants that are now 5-6 inches tall. If the AT $#^%* deer
don't get
'em, they will be spectacular again this year.
I found another Yellow Warbler and a Louisiana Waterthrush near our pond
yesterday.
What a fun time to be alive and anxiously awaiting daylight. Life is fun
filled and fine!
Be well guys and bless all.
