Migration
Most hummingbirds of the U.S. and Canada migrate south in fall to spend winter in Mexico or Central America. A few southern South American species also move north to the tropics during the southern winter. A few species are year-round residents in the warmer coastal and southern desert regions of the USA. Among these are Anna's Hummingbird, a common resident from California inland to Arizona and north to the southwestern coastal and south-central interior of British Columbia, and Buff-bellied Hummingbird, an uncommon resident in subtropical woodlands of southern Texas.
Ruby-throated hummingbirds migrate from as far north as all regions of Ontario south to Central America and Mexico via direct crossings of the Gulf of Mexico or coastal Texas.
