New bird on the farm...white or purple throated Mountain Gem Juv
Hello all, So yesterday a mystery bird https://terryboquetebirdstory.blogspot.com/2018/08/mysterious-hummingbird.html , now we are a step further. She is still here today, territory arguments with the rufous tailed Hummingbirds. Better video, you see she has a lot of brown in the back and forehead, no tail, so I think a Juvenile. Still doubts ...because a white throated Mountain Gem is according the book severe out of range, here it is 1250 meters altitude and acc. the book they are above the 1500 m. While the purple throated Mountain Gems can appear already between 600 to 1500 m... so still not a 100% ID
Greetings from Terry
