Very cool. We have tons of Hummingbirds in New Mexico. I've seen Blackchinned, Broadtailed, Rufous, Anna's and Caliope at our feeders. It's not uncommon to go through a half gallon of food a day when they're tanking up for migration. You get 20-30 hummers around a feeder or two and the noise is tremendous!

That would be great to see!

My sister went to Costa Rica in August and went to a Hummingbird garden. She brought back the most fantastic pictures. I had no idea there were so many different varieties.

Just the 3 that we have in our yard make a lot of noise. One day they'll share, the next day, they are fighting!
