This is the first rufous hummingbird I’ve seen at my feeder this year. The hummingbirds are slowly starting to return.

Terrific capture, Maralee!
Thank you, Jane.
Great action shot, Maralee!
Would it be considered late in the season for them to only arrive now? We’re in winter now, but in another month we’ll start seeing the first of our summer migrants at this end of the world.
Usually I start seeing more of them in late May/early June. We saw some early on at the end of March and then they just sort of disappeared for a while. I’m seeing more and more every day.
This is a beautiful image! Great catch of the little speedster.
