Observation details
Continuing adult male hummingbird with a very broad red base to the bill, which tapers off into a black color, and is strongly curved downward, compared to other species of local California hummingbirds. There is extensive metallic blue on the breast and metallic green on the abdomen. The vent is white. The black tail is strongly notched, and the bird constantly pumps its tail while hovering and feeding. In the attached audio recording it sounds like a ruby crowned kinglet.
