prominent perch. After some 10-15 seconds
it left, flying directly NNW, upslope
to the W side of the main stream and flew
above the gardens.
After this the D mapus was not seen
again before I left. A & P Selasphorus
appeared again, fed, as did a J
Selasphorus prasin. The latter made
the characteristic flight round coming
in from the south side of the shrub mass.
The latter did not react to the
F, which was 5-6 feet away at one
time. Both left within 5-10 seconds.
Both behaved as 'intruders' coming
to feed in an area known to them to
be defended by some other Hummer.
