Can anyone confirm the ID of this Hummingbird? Taken in Jalisco, Mexico 27th Feb 2024. Female Broad Billed or White Eared?
Apologies for photo...Taken with a cellphone!
Many thanks

Ir would be a good idea if you editied your post to enter where in the States this was as there are certain hummers that only park in certain states

Greyish underparts should be better for broad-billed

I would actually go a step further and suggest you include the nearest town/city as elevation plays a big role in what species are in contention. Broad-billed seems like a good bet though from these pics.

From previous discussions, no you do not have an absolute requirement to include the location in the title of the thread, so you did not do anything absolutely wrong. Having said that, you will be more popular next time if you do give a location in the title -- and for subtropical and tropical areas, being as specific as possible with location is a good idea.
