The one I cannot get a picture of is the male rufous. He's at my feeder daily, but scoots the moment the camera comes out! Stellar jays? I'm pretty sure they mug for the camera
I agree these are beautiful! It is one of those species like the Rufus hummingbird and white tailed kites ,which I get a glimpse of occasionally.
Such a beautiful species! We have them in our local mountains but I can't seem to get a photo of them. I'll just enjoy yours :)
