Observation details
This was incredible - to have 2 Rufous Hummingbirds at one feeder on Cape Cod in January! I heard about a selasphorus hummingbird going to a feeder and the homeowners graciously allowed me to band it. Since it was in Orleans, i figured it was the same one I banded in Oct going to their feeder. I set up my trap and shortly after a hummingbird went in only to have another one chase after it and scare it away. I was in shock! Eventually I was able to capture both of them, one being a new adult female and the other one a younger female that I banded at the community gardens. Unfortunately the homeowners do not want visitors. Photos. I’ll be submitting to MARC the newly banded hummingbird with measurements etc.
