Rufous???
13 years ago
Because I live in the Hill County north of San Antonio, my migrant hummingbirds can vary and I'm not 100% on my ID of this little one. I thought this one was a female Ruby until I saw the flash of rufous. Now I can't decide if it is a Rufous or Broad Tailed.
These are the best pictures I could manage. Really wish they would cooperate and BE STILL when I am trying to get their portrait! :-D
Thanks
