Black chin

 

Canada gets only four hummingbirds. Around the Lake, we get three, and occasionally all four.

Earlier, I posted images of the Calliope and Rufous. Today’s picture shows the third: a Black-chinned Hummingbird. It has been hanging around for a few days, but today, I managed a picture.

A Black-chinned Hummingbird shows purple iridescence at the base of its gorget.

    At this range he looks almost mechanical…and with a hint of malice! Or is that just intensity of purpose?
