Observation details
Continuing stakeout found by Tom Uslan, been frequenting his feeders between ~4 pm and dusk. Adult male with many spread tail shots taken. Fully green back, head, and rump. Unnotched R2 and pin like R4 and R5. Aggressively defending feeders from Anna’s and offering great looks. Unfortunately, the bird never displayed but the date and location suggests this bird could be breeding locally. A female selasphorus was also spotted which could potentially be his mate. What an amazing find by Tom and a fantastic job documenting the spread tail. Not an easy thing to do. Many thanks for his hospitality. For those interested, you can contact Tom via his email that is on his ebird profile.
