Xantus's Hummingbird adult male
Near Cabo San Lucas , Baja Sur, Mexico
December 28, 2000

December is not the recommended "peak" time to find Xantus's Hummingbirds as they move down from the mountains to lower elevation wintering territories. This male was holding his territory in a shrub patch with red flowers, but seemed to tolerate the smaller male Costa's that perched 15 yards away.
