just back from Lassen Volcanic National Park where hatch-year Rufous 
Hummingbirds migrating south are collecting in the few mountain valleys where 
flowers still bloom.

The meadow this bird was in had at least 100 hummingbirds, each claiming and 
defending feeding territory that overlaps with its neighbors' claims.
