You can know the name of a bird in all the languages of the world, but when you're finished, you'll know absolutely nothing whatever about the bird . . . So let's look at the bird and see what it's doing - that's what counts. I learned very early the difference between knowing the name of something and knowing something.

The Rufous have arrived! Our first male Rufous Hummingbird arrived March 11. On the 22nd we noticed our first female. Now it is hard to count the males and the females. They are zipping between our 11 Red Flowering Currant bushes, and the three feeders that I have at different sides of the house. We noticed "our" female Anna's is still with us, but we haven't seen the male Anna's Hummingbird for at least two weeks.
Welcome Spring!
