Re the recent posting on Allens hummers. (Sorry, I couldn't find the
original so I can't give a reference). I got my first one this year on
feb 12. 

Birds of Northern California gives the dates as late Jan for Allens and
mid feb for Rufous. I don't know wether Rufous is rare this year, but I 
cann't find one anywhere :-(
