Observation details
Noticed this hummer defending territory chasing off a second hummingbird, possibly a rufous but I didn't get a close look at it. The calliope perched nearby - I immediately noted tiny size. It remained perched and through 400mm photo lens clearly saw clear bright pink throat rays. Spent over 5 minutes observing, so cool to see this bird. A second hummer continued to try and pass by the area, the calliope aggressively chased it away, would disappear momentarily and then re-perch on the tree. Pretty great time.
