I really did see a hummer

19 years ago

I was looking out my window on Friday and saw something moving really fast through my Carape Mrytle trees. I thought it was a Hummingbird Moth at first then realized it was a Hummingbird. I rarely see them at all in my yard. Anyway, it came back yesterday and today. I think it is a immature male Ruby throated. Today is the first day that it has been sunny and I have been able to clearly see the greenish color on the head and chest. The beak is long and dark as well.There is a white throat area, and some white on the side wing it appears. Here is a far off picture, not that anyone can clearly see to ID but at least it proves I did see one! He seems to like to land in the area of the same tree.

Look in the center of the picture to the right of the long branch of leaves and below the small cluster of leaves. It is facing left and you will see the beak.
