After our male Broad-tailed Hummingbird (nicknamed Kotter) failed to show in late May this year - as he had the past two years where he roosted every night from late May until late August in our backyard - we gave up looking for him.
However, last night, there was a male broad-tailed sitting in the same exact spot that Kotter had the previous two years. My assumption, with so very many spots that a hummingbird can roost around my home, is that this is the same hummingbird. This is a very specific spot on one of dozens of branches, in one of a hundred+ trees around my home. Still - can't say for sure. But I will check again tonight. It is quite possible he has been there since mid-June, as we really gave up checking around the second week in June. fyi Jeff J Jones ( <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected]) Teller County - 8500' - Montane Woodlands -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
