Here's another hummingbird example, though I'm not sure what species

Recorded in Larkspur Colorado with a Sony ECM-MS907 (which is

to a branch near a hummingbird feeder. Similar to Rich's example,
these ones are also playing basketball =96 listen for the nice passes
followed by a slam dunk at the end.=20
