Artist's Description: This male rufous hummingbird is taking a brief rest from feeding on nectar. Rufous hummingbirds migrate further than any other hummingbird species spending their summers in the Pacific Northwest and their winters in Mexico. I actually saw this particular bird in Tucson, AZ. Perhaps he will be a summer visitor to my home in Oregon? Another interesting fact about rufous hummingbirds is that they are the most aggressive of the hummingbird species and will displace other hummingbirds from a food source.
