I'm in East Millcreek, just north of Holladay, and just went outside for 
a work breather. 
What did I hear and see buzzing overhead, but a Hummer! (Not the 
gas-guzzling variety, but rather the nectar-guzzling type. :-) 
Did not get close enough view of it to identify visually, but sounds 
like Black-chinned, I think, with the Volkswagon Beetle/Bus engine sound. 
The first Hummingbird of the season for me here.
