Rufous Hummingbird

A visit from this species is a welcoming sight.

Rufous Hummingbirds are migratory hummingbirds which breed from the Pacific Northwest clear up into Alaska. They winter in the Yucatan down in Mexico and this means that they make a tremendous migration every year. Some Rufous Hummers have been found to fly as much as 12,000 miles during a round-trip migration.

Sweet taste!

The Golden fronted Woodpecker
he can be funny and persistent.
Once in a while I get one that makes a show for me.

They are so sweet they even warm each other.

Nashville Warbler

This one together with three more enjoy a little splash on the water .
I see them come every Fall and sometimes one stay for a few weeks.

Happy Birthday Lisa
