Steely vented hummer
This hummer is a 'regular' in our garden, along with his many relations...

Most of ours are a little drab when compared to this colorful, jewel-like bird. Thanks for sharing the photo.

Even the drab ones look like gems to my eyes!!!
 I'm thinking, for example, of the Brown Violetear (mostly brown, but what a beautiful creature it is!!!  ).I don't think your North American hummingbirds are drab, Lisa, they lack some "ornaments" (like the ones found in the Coquettes) but they are colourful and gorgeous!!! It is a beautiful pic of your delightful neightbour, Patricia!!! Thank you very much for posting it here!!!  |
