“Hundreds of kinds of hummingbirds nest in the American tropics, and more than a dozen in the western U.S., but east of the Great Plains there is only the Ruby-throat,” according to Audubon. What is interesting to me is that of all of the photos I have seen of the Ruby-throated Hummingbird (archilochus colubris), no two look alike. We have native bee balm growing in our yard, also called Bergamot. It just started blooming, so we should start to see the Hummingbirds start to come around.
