This image is from the area by the Summit ponds, next to the control post. I have no idea what this hummer is. It looks basically all green - images with a slightly different angle indicates that the bluish color of the shade is an artifact. I have lightened the image using a setting for fill light. If I lighten a lot more, then the secondary coverts look like they might be buffy, at least some of them - but I am not sure whether that is an artifact.

Any good ideas?

Thanks Eduardo.

Initially, I thought that the bill was too long for that species. Is it really that the female has a longer bill than the males?
