[Birdtalk] Rufous Hummingbirds Still Here

[M. H. Wallace]

The Rufous Hummingbirds are still here, I've just seen a few buzzing 
around the yard, Black-chinned and possibly Broad-tailed along with the 
Rufous' are chasing each other around, competing for food and the 
opposite sex, I suppose...  They sound like VW micro-buses on jet-fuel.  
(Remember that characteristic sound of a Volks-Wagon micro-bus or even 
the VW Beetle?  It occurs to me that they sound like that, only with 
Jet-A fuel in the tank. :-)
