Calliope Hummers – Flintkote Ave

Today, along the Flintkote Avenue trail in Torrey Pines State Reserve I found 2 CALLIOPE HUMMINGBIRDS, 1 male and 1 female. They were both found about 75 yards past the gate near the residence, just before the orange post/marker. Both birds were perched in the small trees along the trail and I lost them when they flew up the hill, so I did not see if they had a preference for any particular flower. According to e-bird, this is roughly the same spot where this species was found each of the last two years, with a pair present in 2017.

Good Birding!
