Observation details
Exciting find by Rene Reyes! Beautiful hummer that was overall greenish with a blue gorget; long wings; long, forked tail that pumped constantly while hovering to feed; bill an orangey-red and thick; and a white stripe behind the eye suggesting that this male is on the younger side. Made chipping notes that was strikingly similar to a RCKI. It initially fooled me. Saw well for about a minute when it sipped from the feeder. Then it settled in a small tree where we got some looks through the branches.
