I will also note that Selasphorus hummers, and Anna's too, are very
abundant in our yard this year and very busy, plus I am hearing many
at Bandon Dunes Golf resort. Good year for them.

Currently walking around Millicoma Marsh, Coos Bay. The willows are in full flower and the Rufous Hummers are EVERYWHERE- truly amazing. I have seen HUNDREDS (in a mile+ long walk), in any one spot I stop I see 3-5 buzzing around. Both males and females. Also some Annas but mostly Rufous. Displaying males galore.
Also singing Sooty Fox Sparrows in full song and the first C YELLOWTHROATS calling (at least three). Tree Swallows too- yesterday VGs at the house in Coos Bay. Heard Audubon Warblers and Purple Finches singing on N Spit Coos Bay yesterday.
Never seen so many hummers!
Beautiful morning,
