[obol] Possible Rufous Hummingbird in Eugene

Hi Folks. Thought I'd pass along two observations from Dael Parsons:

Yesterday morning, she heard several "zee-chuppety-chups" in the area  
around the UO in Eugene. Seems early for a Rufous Hummingbird, but ...

She and her husband both caught (on separate occasions) a Townsend's  
Warbler seeming to drink out of their hummingbird feeder. The bird  
dipped its beak into the opening and tipped its head back to swallow.  
She says on both occasions the feeder had recently been cleaned and  
had no bugs in or around it. I can vouch for her housekeeping.

Best regards,

Margie
