Subject: Hummingbird

The report of a potentially interesting hummingbird came from a
sharp-eyed
observer (David Hysell) at his feeder yesterday. I have enclosed a
couple
pictures. What do you think the age, sex, and species of this bird
is--(don't be afraid to say Ruby-throat), support your identification.
