The hummingbird occurrence data on the maps are taken directly from the weekly "Winter Hummer Reports" compiled by Tom Sylvest and posted on Humnet.  Email Tom (tomande@stargazer.net) with new reports of winter hummers you find in Louisiana.  Email me (SJPeterson@aol.com) with corrections or suggestions on the maps.
