I checked out this hummingbird report this afternoon. It is an adult
male Rufous Hummingbird with the entire back orange. The feeder cannot be
seen from the road. The homeowners (both work) are agreeable to having
visitors but would prefer to keep the number of visiting birders at a
minimum. Details will be worked out tomorrow.
