Observation details

continuing. large plump Selasphorus with noticeably long & broad tail, heavily spangled bronzy-greenish gorget, partial green vest with rufous wash on sides, and bright green back. bright rufous bases on outer rectrices noted on photos. I'm thinking it's adult female because remiges & rectrices appear worn (fresh in imm), "cold" facial aspect, and because I'm not really seeing buff edges on upperparts.
