Activity at West Campus was booming this evening after the rain. I had a Black-chinned Hummingbird down by the greenhouse as well as plenty of selasphorus visiting the bottlebrush scattered throughout the area, with adult male Rufous outnumbering male Allen’s today by a small margin. No Calliopes here yet. Hooded Orioles are also stacking up with my count in the double digits, along with a couple Bullock’s mixed in. A pair of Black-headed Grosbeaks was showing off near the loop, and Western Kingbirds were in the field south of Seaway Drive.
