Since July 4th, Rufous juveniles showed up at our hummingbird feeders in the ponderosas 14 miles west of Livermore (7500 ft). Yesterday, adult male Calliope (1), Rufous (al least 3), and Broad-tailed (a bazillion) Hummingbirds started warring over the feeders. The Calliope and Rufous males were newcomers. Their aerial antics are always fun to watch. The lone Calliope seems to be in a land of giants.
A pair of Golden Eagles have been hunting the area, must have a successful nest nearby. Have a great week!
