Continuing with my alphabetical series on "5" photos we come to the Lucifer Hummingbird. Lucifer is a rare hummingbird to the US. It is occasionally seen in Southwestern Texas, and the extreme Southwestern corner of New Mexico. It is most often see in Southeastern Arizona. That is not to say it is abundant anywhere. The best place to find this beautiful little hummer is the Ash Canyon Bed and Breakfast. It is a daily visitor there from May through September. It is occasionally found in the Portal area of the Chiricahua Mountains and occasionally seen in the Santa Rita Mountains. But, the south end of the Huachuca Mountains is really the best place.

ReplyDeleteYes, they have. Ash Canyon B&B really has been the best location now for several years. Gorgeous hummer. Thanks for your comment.
