We've had at least 2 Rufous males all summer & numerous females. The males seemed to have departed in the last couple of weeks, but today I saw a female at one of our feeders. That was a bit of a surprise because I thought all had moved on. Our resident Anna's seem to be increasing in numbers and I'm certain we had some nearby nests.
