Observation details
Wow!!! Continuing bird. First met a very nice neighbor who contacted the property owner, who generously allowed us to visit his yard, where we spent time observing this beautiful bird at a distance. Small hummingbird with streaky gorget that looked dark plum or dazzling ruby—depending on the light. Short tail, green back, green grayish head with hints of blue iridescence; light upper breast with shaded hints of rufous, green, and gray on sides and belly. Perching on bare branch near neighbor’s fence. Very vocal. Photos to follow.
