Back on Oct 20th we reported a probable Rufous hummingbird visiting our feeders.  Two days later it 
was captured, banded, measured, and identified as a male juvenile Rufous by master bander Tim 
Tolford as part of the HBRC/Tri-state Hummingbird Study.  We had also posted pictures at:

From that time until yesterday, he showed up every day at the feeder a few minutes before sunrise.  
But yesterday and today he was awol.  So I assume he has moved on, hopefully south.  And hopefully 
there are many persons in his path who still have their nectar feeders out.
