Sunday's Hummers

I have lots of young Rufous Hummingbirds now.

They all appear to by feisty and full of themselves. 

I've seen as many as three at a time.

The sad news is that my male Rufous has moved on.
I haven't seen him for several days now.  Truly his work is done, and I guess he could be headed south on a migration journey.  

Fortunately the Anna's are here and will stay all year.

You can tell this female has been hard at work as a pollenator!

She is guarding my Mudroom Flowerbed which is full of salvias and agastaches.

And for a spot of color, there's still the male Anna's Hummingbird.

I know I'm partial, but I think the Anna's males are more handsome than Ruby-throated as their entire head glows.

What do you think?

She thinks he is very handsome.
