Hi Tweeters -



I live in Maple Valley, and have been fortunate enough to attract Anna's
hummers to my feeder over the winter. I started seeing Rufous hummers a
month ago. This is the first time I have used the feeder year round, and
have only had it out for the past year. Question: Do we get other species
in this area, such as calliope hummingbirds? I appreciate any guidance
here.

Ps A nice recent photo of a common grackle (we believe) sent by my brother
in Alexandria VA. He called it "Reflection" and even though he is no great
fan of this species (he got a new lens for his camera), we both thought it
amusing, if not particularly noteworthy.
