Male Calliope

Ok, something’s definitely up. Just had an adult male Calliope Hummingbird come into the feeder. Calliope Hummingbirds don’t usually show here until late Aug/early Sept & are primarily juveniles. 

Looking at range map for Rose-breasted Grosbeak, which appeared yesterday at seed feeder, think something has started an early push southward by at least some of the breeding birds to our north. No matter the cause, exciting.
