Rufous Hummingbird by jankoos

Rufous Hummingbird

Sitting on a shrub. It was pouring rain but he didn't seem to mind. He is a territorial little guy. I only used to see him in the evenings but now it seems to be his mission to keep all the other hummers away. Pretty, isn't he?
What a privilege to see this bird so close! His coat is just amazing - a Coat of Many Colours!

@bristolrose - maybe the cold winter, Kathryn - I bet they will be back. I hadn't seen any in a long time but started keeping a feeder up and changing the syrup every few days. Usually we have Anna's at the feeder year round but I haven't seen any Annas this year - just rufous.
