Rufous Hummingbird Photos

Photography by Terry Sohl

My Favorite: Rufous Hummingbirds are occasionally found in the Black Hills and western part of the state, but they're not a species I've ever seen in South Dakota (we're 5+ hours from the Black Hills). However, given our love of traveling in the western US, I do have quite a few photos of the species. Unfortunately, most of them aren't that GREAT of photos! But I am very fond of this photo, taken in the rain in Cannon Beach, Oregon in 2013.
