Observation details

Immature male. Mix of red and green on back, splotches in throat. Tail photos show R2 feathers without notch, but maybe that’s typical for a young Rufous, the expected sp here. Merlin called its chatter Allen's. Feeding on orange Esperanza at entry and blooming chomonque in native garden.
