Wing chord was 43.42mm, Tail was 27.0mm, Exposed Culmen was 20.42mm (2-3mm longer than longest RTHU). Tail feather shapes were also rounder and wider than Ruby-throats. First Observed 29 October 2025 when p7 was growing in (80%). Today p7 was 90% grown in, and p8, p9, and p10 were old and worn in what appeared to be suspended molt.
