Field Notes

Description:

The male has an iridescent green back and a grey belly. The throat is bright red, but only when the sun hits it right. Otherwise, it just looks black. I got the light to hit him right in the last photo, but I apparently suck at manually focusing on tiny things so it's fairly blurry.

Habitat:

Came to my feeder, him, another male, and a female are all regular visitors now :)
