Hello Tweeters.
Today I stayed home watching the birds,trying to get some better photos of
the male Yellow Rumped Warbler.I got two males ,one in breeding Plumage the
other coming in.It was showers on and off,but that had no effect of the many
birds going wild.While I stand close to a bush ,I saw a tiny little bird
flying fast right by me,later I discover that this tiny bird was a female
Rufous Hummer,He went right on to the next feeder what is the main feeding
station of the Anna's.It was a fort and back of chasing for ever.I also have
a new little Golden Crown Kinglet,what seem smaller than the one Greg
photographed.My. yard is full of feeders,and there is room enough where you
comfortable can use a tripod,where one can look where all the feeders
hanging,This one male Yellow Rumped male came always to the same feeder,but
it is not easy to get a good photos ,since this birds are all fast moving.


Cheers Ruth Sullivan
