Selasphorus sp, Key Largo

Posted by Stuart Pimm on 17:05:30 03/22/06

One Selasphorus hummingbird in the hardwood hammock that constitutes my garden in Key Largo, MM97.5. Still pre-breeding plumage, very white underneath and onto chin (no gorgette), lacking the black around the eye with white dot behind that characterizes Archilochus species. Numerous very faint spots (feather tips?) of pink underneath.

If anyone can point me to a good guide and photos of Allen's/Rufous I would appreciate it.
