"This morning I had a Rufus/Allen's hummingbird at my feeder for the first time this year. Has anyone else seen any yet?"

Hi all,

We saw our First-of-the-Year male Rufous Hummer on the now-cancelled Fort Steilacoom monthly walk on March 3rd. At the weekly Nisqually NWR "Wednesday Walk", we saw them on 11th March, then on the 'unofficial' walks there, before the Refuge closed, on the 18th and 25th.

More recently, I've had a female coming to my feeder here in west OlyWA starting last week.

Cheers, happy and safe birding to you,
- Jon. Anderson
