While I'm not as lucky as some and haven't found nests, my hummingbirds have been doing the nasty and the "children" are now showing up at the feeders. This last week has been a real zoo. Besides my resident pair of mating Anna's the kids have been hitting the feeders hard. There are also a number of young Rufous showing up. Needless to say having both kinds of them here at the same time can make things a real war zone when it comes to which "flower" belongs to which bird.These shots are a young Anna's male. As far as his color is advancing I'll guess he is from the first breeding this spring.
At the feeder,
Backed off from the feeder,
Full size crop from image. When he is all grown up he will look like
His daddy.
Will have more Oregon Coast shots to post later this week along with some from the local car show and cruise yesterday.
