Rufous Hummingbird

Rufous Hummingbird - Fall 2013, Unityville © Wayne Laubscher

Rufous Hummingbird is a rare vagrant in Lycoming County. There are a few records from late fall. As awareness of winter hummingbirds increases and more people leave feeders up longer, more may be reported. Many of the records have been originally reported through the Winter Hummingbird Contest, which is run in cooperation with Lycoming Audubon Society
