hi ... been having fun photographing the Rufous and the Anna's
Hummingbirds !!!! ... our backyard has been inundated with Rufous ---
and we have no feeders ... they are all in our flowering cherry ...
and, going out hunting birds and wildflowers at lunch we found a
hedge of flowering red currents which had both Rufous and Anna's each
claiming territory ... the Rufous's won BTW ...

here's a a few of my favorites:

Anna's --- from the Vancouver Trout Hatchery
