Re: Male Calliope hummingbird in Hillcrest
Checklist including photos of the Calliope and what sure looks like a (continuing?) Rufous. Two birders tried for this, but showed up after 11am, which is when the Calliope was last definitely seen. I had one in early May of '18, and the same thing happened. The combination of aggressive resident Allen's and migratory urge to head north made it a one day wonder. If it shows up tomorrow morning, I'll post again. We also had our FOS Western Tanager here, a male, but I was too slow to photograph it.
