Yes. The legends there are amazing; there are still people who believe that they ride on the backs of geese as they migrate to Central America. It's fascinating but totally fallacious because they fly at much lower heights and stop more frequently. Hummingbirds are actually carnivores; the nectar is to fuel them for fly-catching.

I usually see them from mid-April until sometime in early October. They're just so much fun to watch.
