Rufous Hummingbird

Anna's Hummingbirds are our year round residents, but in March, the Rufous Hummingbirds show up from down south, and stay until September or so.  Apparently some have decided to hang around our area, making life more miserable for the already scrappy Anna's that fight and bicker over the feeders we put out for them.  This one cooperated nicely with me after I set up my tripod and waited for it to come back to this branch that I'd seen it at earlier. I think this is a male.  I copied this info if you are interested ;)

The feistiest hummingbird in North America. The brilliant orange male and the green-and-orange female Rufous Hummingbird are relentless attackers at flowers and feeders, going after (if not always defeating) even the large hummingbirds of the Southwest, which can be double their weight. Rufous Hummingbirds are wide-ranging, and breed farther north than any other hummingbird. Look for them in spring in California, summer in the Pacific Northwest and Alaska, and fall in the Rocky Mountains as they make their annual circuit of the West.
