Observation details
Fantastic find. Seen just above the rusty metal gate feeding on desert honeysuckle. Seen well and photographed, but the internet here does not allow us to upload photos. Seen at 8:15 am and again at 8:45 in the same location. Fairly large but slender hummer, with a very long bill. White line above the ear and bold white chin stripe; two lines connect behind the ear. White patch on upper rump or lower back area. Back green but not dark emerald like Magnificent. Back flecked with gold. Lower half of throat lit up orange-red in the sunlight. Squarish tail with white on outer edges and tips of outer tail feathers.
