Hi all,
It sounds like everyone is enjoying the hummingbirds as much as I am. I do not have as many hummingbirds as in years past, probably because there are so many flowers in the high country. BUT: on 8/2 and 8/3, I have had one ad. m. Calliope 8/2 & 8/1, one female Black-chinned Hummingbird, and one ad. m. Rufous, and 2 Broad-tailed Hummingbird 8/3 : one imm. m. Black-chinned who has gorgeous purple flecking coming into his gorget area[this makes 2 Black-chinned in the yd. as of today]. One ad. m. Rufous who is zipping all the birds, and 1, imm. m. Rufous. Several f. and imm. Calliope. And : 2-3 Broad-tailed Hummingbirds [ad. f. and immatures] I think the ad. m. Calliope might be here tomorrow, but you never know. He goes to the backyard feeder [next to the clothes line], but he does not come in all the time because the Rufous is so aggressive. My hummers feed alot on the plants also. Happy Birding!
