Overnight, our hummingbird population tripled or more. This AM, we’re seeing 3 hummingbird types at the feeder.
Black-chinned, Rufous & Calliope are present. What’s interesting, is that the majority of the birds are juveniles. A couple of adult females are feeding but haven’t seen an adult male.

As fast as they’re hitting the feeder, will have to refill by noon. I’m convinced the combination of dry conditions & area wildfires have pushed the hummers into the more moist & still flowering conditions of the Snake River Riparian Grounds, as they migrate south.
