I live in western WA near Seattle. It used to be (80s and 90s) that Rufus Hummers were present in the early to late Spring and then headed up into the mountains. Since I moved back from the Bay Area about 8 years ago, I never see them any more - all we seem to have are Anna's. Don't get me wrong, I love them all, but miss the Rufus.
Even though I am from India and I know nothing about the birds there, I love watching these rare bird videos! (I have no idea what's rare and what's not) :)
Hey, Logan! Thanks for the comment. It's definitely possible, and it does look smaller than the others but with the distance and waves it would be really hard to confirm. We tend to be on the more conservative side when it comes to possible list additions :)

Whoops, looks like you got a Ross's there too!
Possible. Would like some better views though to be able to be sure.
Wooooo rare birds are my favorite, got to see a wheateater this fall on Long Island
Hey, thanks! Congrats on the Wheateater! :)
Love the hummer video esp! Great job!
Thank you!
That's pretty cool! Looks like you guys had fun. I gotta improve my ID skills.

Awesome video! Those are some really cool sightings. I get some scoters here in New Jersey as early as October.
Jack Tonzola thanks! We’re a big fan of the Scoters as well!

Great birds, good vid guys! Thanks!
Peter Shelton thanks, Peter!
Did you guys check the SNGO on the right. Kinda looks like a ROGO, but it’s hard to get a look.

@@BadgerlandBirding Oh I totally get it! Great vids btw!
Whoah, how you just gonna say great tit and not elaborate! Wouldn't that be a super rarity?
They’re likely escaped birds that now breed here so unfortunately they’re not countable :/ They may be in the future though!
