He’s becoming a favorite among the flowers and not sure he comes to the feeders that are dominated by the Rufous-tailed. See more photos from this week in the GALLERY: Blue-vented Hummingbird.
¡Pura Vida!

Yes the Rufus dominates the feeder. I think we need more flowers to attract this one.
I agree Steve that flowers are what attract the hummingbirds rather than feeders. And it is interesting that this little Blue-vented Hummingbird likes the Mimosa Tree flowers in the two yards on either side of me. My first photo of this one was on Richard’s Mimosa Tree (has several other names) that hangs over the property line into my yard.
