With all of the 'probable' Rufous Hummingbirds in the sta Matt et all, With all of the 'probable' Rufous Hummingbirds in the state right now, getting a nice tail spread shot is key. Pennsylvania just had their 3rd record of Allen's Hummingbird (which was originally called a Rufous). http://www.nemesisbird.com/2012/11/allens-hummingbird-bucks-county-pa/ Also, on the Ohio Ornithological Society website, a lady reported a hummingbird coming to her feeders in Ross County. I have yet to hear back from her but here's the post for those interested: http://www.ohiobirds.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=2401 Ethan Kistler, Oak Harbor, Ohio Newton Falls, Ohio Ithaca, New York ________________________________ From: Matthew Erickson <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] Sent: Saturday, November 24, 2012 9:28 AM Subject: [Ohio-birds] Possible Rufous Hummingbird in Delaware County I have pictures posted of the hummingbird that is frequenting my feeder … A friend of mine is a professional photographer and got a lot of good shots. http://www.emmett-photography.com/Category/Humming-Bird-20121123/ Unfortunately, I don't think we got a diagnostic tail shot, the bird was not cooperative in spreading out her tail. The hummer has been very regular 15-30 minute (8am to 5pm) visitor for the past two days at least. If anyone is interested in stopping by I live in the Polaris mall area … please contact me via e-mail to arrange a time. Put your hummingbird feeders out! You never know … Thanks, Matt ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
