Rufous Hummingbird

Selasphorus rufus

Description:

Migrating from SW US and Mexico up into N Cal, Oregon, Washington and canada, the rufous male is the first to arrive and the first to leave. Late summer finds females and juveniles awaiting the long trek south. The green/rufous coloring helps the birds blend into the foliage while foraging
