Birders,
The immature male Costa's Hummingbird visiting my feeders in Las Animas,
Bent County, CO. made it's first appearance at 6;23 this morning.
Birders are welcome. The bird can take longer to see in the afternoon,
when temperatures have been rising above 100 degrees, and it is not
actively feeding or chasing the few Black-chinned Hummingbirds that remain.
As with all migratory birds, I can't guarantee how long it will stick
around.
