None have shown up in central MS yet either. There are some migration maps that I usually check to know when to hang my feeders.

Haven't seen any in North AL yet, but the first Purple Martin showed up on the first day of March.

I put out my feeders last week (in SWLA) in hopes to find some early ones but haven't seen any yet.

I’m pretty sure I heard one yesterday morning. But didn’t get visual confirmation.

I put mine out this morning. I had a ton of Hummingbirds last summer and fall. Sometimes 10-12 flying around at the same time.

We saw winter hummingbirds across South Louisiana since October. The bulk of summer migrants usually show up just before St Patrick's Day in much of Louisiana, but a few will be a bit earlier to places which have had flowers and/or feeders out early in years past. They remember. Planting Red Buckeye is a great plan since they like it, it produces a lot of nectar and it blooms about when they arrive. We have 5 small feeders which get drained in two days so we never get mold issues.
They are a lot of fun to watch.
