Birds I'm Watching: Allen's Hummingbird

Watched a male Allen's hummingbird for a while this afternoon. It was flitting from blossom to blossom on the large "Tuscan Blue" rosemary bush on the deck side of the house. We normally see the Anna's hummingbird here. It's always refreshing to see something different. Since living in Santa Rosa, I've seen a rufous hummingbird once. I typically see the Allen's once or twice a year. The Anna's is present more or less every day of the year.
