I just spoke with Mrs. Leach about the Broad-tailed Hummingbird. She hasn't seen it back at the feeders yet since Portia and I left. However, she has discovered that several of the other residents of the complex also have hummingbird feeders out, so it may well be that the bird has switched feeders. It has just begun its primary molt, so my expectation is that this bird will be around for a couple of weeks at least. As soon as I get a better handle on the situation, I will post more.
